Explore the Majestic Grand Canyon Caves
Grand Canyon Caverns is the only place with accessible caves around the Grand Canyon area and the most extensive in the U.S.
The Grand Canyon area is home to approximately 1,000 caves, of which only 335 have been recorded. Most of these caves exist in Redwall and Muav limestone formations. However, some have developed in other formations.
The Cave of the Domes on Horseshoe Mesa is well-known and popular among visitors. Some cave resources include cave formations, mummified remains of Ice Age creatures, and archeological artifacts such as split-twig figures. These caves have a huge role in regional hydrology, as proven by impressive waterfalls and streams such as Vaseys Paradise, Cheyava Falls, Roaring Thunder, and Tapeats Springs.
Let’s Explore the Cave of the Domes on Horseshoe Together!
The caves are still being extensively explored and professionally mapped, as they are the largest Dry Cavern System in the U.S. and the third largest globally. For this reason, all caves are closed to visitors except for Cave of the Domes on Horseshoe Mesa.
At Grand Canyon Caverns, we offer four tour options and accessibility on the "Short Tour," accessible to everyone - including those with wheelchairs or motorized chairs. The tours run every 30 minutes during peak season and at least once an hour year-round.
