Stalactites, flow-stone, and dragons, oh my! The easy 45-minute cave tour of Black Chasm Cavern visits the Colossal Room, which measures 100 feet across and 150 feet deep and provides glimpses of a deep, turquoise lake far below, and the Landmark Room, which features a spectacular display of twisting, looping helictite crystals. The caves are a constant cool 57 degrees. Gemstone mining and picnic tables are available outside.
More things to do in Volcano.
More things to do in Gold Rush Country.
More ideas for exploring Northern California.
