Cathedral Caverns: Alabama's Underground Wonder
Who doesn’t love exploring a cave? This amazing Alabama state park deserves a spot on your southern US road trip.
(Save this for your Alabama trip!)
Cathedral Caverns State Park is only 45 minutes southwest of you when you visit Huntsville, Alabama and about 45 minutes north of the Lake Guntersville area. It’s a fabulous treasure for your northeast Alabama travel.
Check out these world records:
💎Largest stalagmite forest - sooo cool!
💎Largest stalagmite in the world at 43 feet tall and 243 feet circumference
💎Widest commercial cave entrance
Not to mention.
My roadtrip family has visited caves.
But this one wins the prize for my favorite. So that should get an award. 🏆
It’s soooo huge and the stalagmites are everywhere. It’s truly amazing.
❓Yet, I’ve mentioned it to Georgia friends and not a single one has ever been. It’s only four hours from us!
You must have tickets for a tour. Our guide was awesome, and we got 1.5 hours of so much learning! My favorite roadschool learning.
This north Alabama state park even has several hiking trails in the park if you’re up for it. (Or have to wait for your tour.)
❗️Warning: This place gets crowded on holidays and summer vacation. Get your tour tickets ahead of time!
Make sure when you visit north Alabama, Cathedral Caverns makes your list. My kids’ enthusiasm led them to tell Dad all about it… over and over again.
Thanks so much @CathedralCavernsStatePark and @ExploreLakeGuntersville for hosting us on our @RetreetResort adventure. It was the highlight of our Alabama family trip!
