I've visited a lot of caves (just as a tourist, not as a caver), and Carlsbad Caverns was by far my favorite. It's very unique and different from any other cave I've visited. It's much larger with mo… anotheruxguy的完整评论
Wheelchairs, walkers, scooters and similar devices are permitted in the wheelchair-designated portions of the Big Room only and not in other areas of the cavern or any other caves.
If I take the elevator down to the Big Room (vs taking the Natural Entrance Trail), is there anything that I would miss by having taken the elevator? I have 4 kids (ages 1 in a carrier, 3, 5 and 7) but they are well traveled and have hiked 4+ miles through other caves like Mammoth Caves.

The Natural Entrance was really cool to walk down and through. There are a good number of formations that are well lit, and you think are really neat, but then you get into the main cavern and appreciate just how awesome it is!

Hi, Stupid question where to book a tour, can not find it anywhere?Thank you
答:
Not stupid at all! You can’t book online, only in-person. We did a self-guided tour and didn’t find the need for a guide. The rangers provide maps and info when you buy your tickets.
The park is open every day, except Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's days, weather and road conditions permitting. Purchase cavern tickets at the ticket counter...
