About Rickwood Caverns State Park
Descend 175 feet underground to explore a massive cavern system carved from an ancient ocean bed, featuring 260-million-year-old limestone formations and blind cave fish. The cave maintains a constant, comfortable temperature between 58 and 62 degrees year-round, making it an ideal escape from Alabama's heat or cold. Navigate nearly a mile of guided pathways through this geological wonder, complete with an underground pool and stunning mineral deposits. Beyond the cave, the state park offers camping, hiking trails, and even gemstone mining activities for families seeking diverse outdoor adventures.
