Tours & Fees

There is a per-person fee charged for all visitors on cave tours, with the exception of children under five years of age.

Annual Passes do not cover cave tour fees. Senior and Access card holders are eligible for discounts, but these discounts apply to the card holder only and not the entire group.

Reservations are strongly recommended to ensure a tour. Spaces are limited and all tours sell out during peak season. Go to www.recreation.gov for reservations

Many campsites in the park require reservations during the peak season (roughly from Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day weekend). Only the Baker Creek Campground is available for first-come, first-serve camping during that time.

Group Camping is available during the summer months at Grey Cliffs Campground sites A5, C1 and C2. Group Site A5 is available as self-registration to walk-up campers. Group sites C1 and C2 are avaiable by reservation. All group sites are limited to 16 campers and are $30 per night. RVs and trailers are not allowed at Grey Cliffs Campgound due to narrow, one-way dirt roads.

All campgrounds fill up during the summer months. Reservations are stronly recommended. Reservations can be made at recreation.gov or by calling (877) 444-6777.
Credit cards are encouraged at campground self-registration stations.
