Visitors can only enter the cave on a scheduled tour. No self guided tours are available. See Operating Hours & Seasons for more information on tour schedules.

Tours last 90 minutes. Expect at least 15 minutes for the walk back to your car. Wait times can reach up to two hours during the summer season. Tours are considered moderately strenuous and children must be over 42 inches (107 cm) in height. 
From the vista on the Cliff Nature trail you can see the nation's largest serpentine rock outcrops in the distance.  

Did You Know?
The mountains surrounding Oregon Caves are composed of ocean crust including rocks uplifted directly from the mantle. These mantle rocks make up one of the largest serpentine rock outcrops in the nation.
