Located east of Hellertown, the Lost River Caverns is a series of 5 large, natural lime-stone caverns which were carved out of the rock by many decades of water movements, which gradually dissolved the soft lime stone leaving amazing rock formations. The caverns were discovered by accident in 1883 and were purchased and enhanced with lighting and handrails to make them suitable for the public to admire. You can explore the underground labyrinth on a guided tour, which takes around 40 minutes and is suitable for visitors of all ages. After your tour you can visit the Cavern Shop to see a range of precious stones, crystals and other jewelry-making necessities.
