You don’t want to miss this fun-filled road trip! Mammoth Cave National Park, is the longest cave system on Earth, featuring the richest known habitat for cave wildlife in the world. It may be difficult to think of caves as spacious and grand, but these are no ordinary caves. Humans first discovered this complex limestone labyrinth some 4,000 years ago beneath the Green River Valley of Edmonson County, Kentucky. To this day, explorers have yet to find an end to it, despite mapping more than 400 miles of passageways. **The park is 3.5 hours from Chattanooga -- north of NashvilleCOST: varies depending on activities so check registration form (includes cave tour @$35 pp, kayaking @$30 pp/double kayak +taxes); our events include a host services fee to support the detailed planning and scheduling required for this type of event.
