When You Arrive at Oregon Caves

The bus parking area is part of the public parking area. For their safety, please keep your students on the bus until directed by a Park Ranger. A Park Ranger will come aboard the bus and give students, teachers, and parent chaperones a brief orientation.

When You Depart from Oregon Caves

The field trip does not include time for visiting the gift shop. If your school has allotted extra time after the ranger activities are completed, your students may visit the gift shop. There must be at least one adult accompanying each group of four children, with a maximum of 8 students at a time in the gift shop.
