A subterranean wonder showcasing striking limestone formations, large rooms, and prehistoric fossils, part of a famous national park's cave system.
Tips from the community
Slaughter Canyon Cave is located far from the main caverns and therefore tends to attract far fewer visitors. The trail to the caves is an attraction in itself, with great views of the mountains. To enter the cave, which has some of the most unusual geologic formations in the park, you will need to reserve a tour with a ranger.
