45-minute Tour

Embark on a spellbinding 45-minute tour. Begin with a leisurely 20-minute stroll through the enchanting valley outside the Cave, followed by a 25-minute boat tour within the Cave.

Not Your Typical Haunted House

This is no jump-scare attraction. Lost Tales of the Underground is designed for those who prefer eerie storytelling and a growing sense of unease as you journey into the unknown. The cave’s natural beauty is the perfect backdrop for ghostly tales that will send a chill down your spine.

experience the park after dark

Get ready for a unique experience unlike our daytime tours, as the cave and valley take on a spooky transformation for Halloween. Dim lighting sets the mood as you glide through the cave, casting eerie shadows along the way. The valley is filled with haunting Halloween décor, adding to the mysterious atmosphere. As darkness falls, experience the park after dark, creating the perfect setting for an unforgettable seasonal adventure.

We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and sturdy shoes, along with a light jacket, as the cave stays cool in the evening. Flotation devices will be provided.

Walk-ins welcomed, but reservations are highly recommended.
