Mammoth Cave National Park

⭐️Overall rating: 9/10

Additional Tips: Throw a light jacket in your hiking gear the cave is 54F year round and you don’t want to be rushed out for warmth and miss the stunning views the cave has to offer. Many tours are available we did the self guided discovery tour and loved it. The hike back up is steep but paved and short and the trails all around are easy moderate in difficulty and length.
