Its a favorite for locals and for people from the city. Its a well presented guided tour of a cave in Schoharie County discovered by a farmer in 1842. The cave itself plays a large part in the local history as well. The tour lasts about 1hr and 20 mins and consists of a mile and a quarter walk with a quarter mile boat ride. Its always 52 degrees so a light jacket is recommended. Its a blast for the whole family.
