Cave Walk
to the Waterfall
The Cave Walk is a guided, express walk through the cave to the waterfall, featuring a basic overview about the cave with recorded audio in a large group format. Group size varies based on date and time of visit.
All admission is timed-entry for a specific date and time.
Discover the hidden beauty inside Lookout Mountain! Descend 260 feet by glass-front elevator into the mountain and explore the cavern trail to the tallest cave waterfall open to the public in the United States. Learn the story behind the accidental discovery of the cavern, see stunning rock formations, and experience the thundering waterfall and lightshow!
Average Length of Cave Walk: 1 hour – 1 hour 20 minutes, depending on date and time of visit with 1-mile round trip walk.
For adventures offering more in-depth details, a slower-pace, extended time at the waterfall and a smaller number of participants, please read about our Lantern and Gentle Walking Tours.
