Cave of the Mounds - near Blue Mounds and Mount Horeb, WI
This National Natural Landmark is an excellent way to get introduced to caving in the Midwest. The cave is recognized by the Chicago Academy of Sciences as "the significant cave of the upper Midwest."
Here you will be able to view a wide array of colorful stalactites, stalagmites, columns and other formations. Since the cavern began forming over a million years ago it has some of the stunning beauty that only such limestone caves can hold. Imagine the time it took for the large caverns to be dissolved within rock that itself is believed to be over 400 MILLION years old!
