This nearly four-mile hike includes one steep hill on a carriage road, but the reward of walking through the cool, dark, talus cave is worth the effort. While in the cave, educators will explain the geology of this unique, natural area and why it’s so special. The footpath section of this outing does include two primitive ladders and a steep, stone staircase, which some may find challenging. Plan to bring food and lots of water and we’ll have lunch on the trail. This program is recommended for families of all ages who are capable of hiking this distance and terrain. Meet at the Sam’s Point Visitor Center.If you'd like to be on the waitlist, please join the Eventbrite waitlist then send an email to Rebecca.Howe@parks.ny.gov and let us know how many tickets you'd need.
