Whether you're an adventurous thrill-seeker or a curious explorer, Canmore Cave Tours offers a unique and unforgettable experience for all ages and abilities.

The cave was "discovered" by European settlers in the early 20th century and has since been carefully managed to preserve its delicate ecosystem. Canmore Cave Tours is committed to responsible tourism and works closely with conservation organizations to protect the cave for future generations. Canmore Cave Tours offers a variety of tours to suit different interests and fitness levels. Choose from the Adventure Tour, a physically challenging experience that involves rappelling and squeezing through tight spaces, or the Discovery Tour, a more relaxed option that focuses on the cave's geology and history. All tours are led by experienced and knowledgeable guides who will ensure your safety and provide fascinating insights into the cave's unique environment. Don't forget to bring sturdy footwear and warm layers, as the cave temperature remains constant year-round.
