Nestled in the center of Jackson County, visitors can hike to the beloved Stephens Gap Callahan Cave Preserve. The trail leading to the cave may be steep and slippery with primitive conditions but is well worth the effort of seeing this highly-photographed geological marvel. The cave’s pit reaches 143 feet deep, and the bottom can only be reached by those with proper caving skills, knowledge, and equipment. However, inexperienced visitors can still admire views from the top of the pit through a short, walk-in passage. The cave limits its daily visitors, so be sure to plan and book your permit ahead of time. Depending on the season, weekend permits are taken up to 3 weeks in advance.
