On the Lantern Tour, you’ll travel deep into the Manitou Grand Caverns, exploring passageways and formations lit only by the hand-held lanterns you carry! You’ll learn about the eerie history and folklore of Cave of the Winds as you travel through the dimly-lit caverns. The tour is a 1½- hour trek through rugged caverns and is ideal for more adventurous visitors. Standing and stooping is required, and wearing athletic shoes is highly recommended. Due to the physical requirements of the tour, it is not recommended for pregnant women or persons who have heart or respiratory problems. The bus leaves at 4:15 PM, and boxed dinners will be provided. Participants will be back at Colorado College by 7:30 PM. |
