点评:These caverns are not as famous as their cousin, Luray, 30 miles away. I was skeptical about these caverns too. But it was a wonderful surprise and I had a good experience with my friend. The tour is 1 hour long and there was no line to buy tickets. You have to walk for about a mile underground and climb around 60 steps. The caverns are well maintained and the guide was pretty informative and entertaining. The unique aspect of this caverns is a white, fungus looking crystal that is growing on the ceiling in one of the caves. They make a spectacular crystal flower impression. You cannot touch the formation and doing so will be a big Federal penalty.
Plenty of parking and there is a souvenir shop. It is pretty close to Skyline drive and could be a good stop on your journey to Shenandoah area.
翻译:这些洞穴并不像 30 英里外的 Luray 洞穴那么出名。我以前也对这些洞穴持怀疑态度。但这真是一个美妙的惊喜,我和我的朋友度过了一段愉快的经历。游览时间为 1 小时,无需排队购票。您必须在地下步行约一英里,爬上约 60 个台阶。洞穴维护得很好,导游知识渊博,很有趣。这个洞穴的独特之处在于其中一个洞穴的天花板上生长着一种白色的、看起来像真菌的水晶。它们给人一种壮观的水晶花印象。您不能触摸这种结构,否则将受到联邦的严厉处罚。
停车位充足,还有一家纪念品商店。它离 Skyline 大道很近,可能是您前往 Shenandoah 地区的旅途中一个不错的停留点。
