Carlsbad Caverns National Park

Kids twelve and over might like to try the Spider Cave tour!

If you are at least 12 years old and you think you might like crawling through tight passageways, you might like the Spider Cave tour!

Carlsbad Caverns National Park offers a variety of wonderful opportunities to learn about the natural resources of the park for children. 

Caves are amazing places for curious kids—an often heard question in the cave is “Where does that hole go?” Participating in the self-guided tours of Carlsbad Cavern—there’s even an audio guide just for kids—or a ranger-guided tour, attending an evening bat flight program, and becoming a Junior Ranger are great ways to discover what is special about this national park.
