Mammoth Cave may be big, but has nothing on Cub Run. We saw lots of neat formations, up close & personal, such as flowstone, soda straws, cave bacon, huge stalagmites & ceilings covered with intricate stalagtites. An added surprise, we saw cave creatures too, a salamander, cave crickets, bats & the blind crayfish. Linda was our guide. You can tell... More

Mammoth cave is large, but thus cave is much more diverse and beautiful. Linda is an excellent tour guide.

We toured Cub Run Cave last weekend. It is the most beautiful cave we've ever been in. Our tour guide, Linda, was great; she gave us lots of information about the cave and since there was only 1 other family on the tour it was like having a personal tour. We had a special treat because Ken Childress, one of... More

This is an awesome stop on any trip! It was a little hard to get to because our gps took is in circles but we stopped at a nice archery/food stop and got the right directions. We went to mammoth cave the day before and took the historic tour which was fantastic in its own right, but cub run cave... More

My husband and I toured Cub Run Cave today. It was just the two of us and our guide. What a cool experience. We have seen many caves, yet this one felt like it had something just a little special something about it. The stream that followed all the way through it made the whole experience warm and cozy, even... More

Cub Run cave is an absolute gem. I have been to caves in Slovenia that were supposedly among the most beautiful in the world but Cub Run put them to shame. The amount of awe-inspiring beauty in this cave is hard for me to describe. Pam and Linda, our guides, were enthusiastic and never rushed our group. The tour was... More

There is nothing wrong with going to Kentucky and checking out Mammoth Cave but if you are in the area and don't go to Cub Run Cave you are cheating yourself. I have been to many caves in Kentucky and this one had, hands down, the most beautiful formations. Just go, it is worth the drive.

This cave is an absolute marvel. It's an awe-inspiring look at an active cave, with incredible stalactite and stalagmite formations. There were so many show-stoppers in this single cave. Not to mention, the story of how it was discovered is very lovely, and the guides were wonderful. You absolutely have to include this in your Kentucky caving experience.
