Mercer Caverns offers guided visits into a decorated limestone cave near Murphys.
The underground route introduces visitors to mineral formations and the Gold Country’s geological setting through a managed show-cave experience.
Check current tour times, tickets and physical requirements before travelling. The route involves stairs and uneven underground conditions, so review suitability for everyone in your group. Follow the guide’s rules around formations. The photograph shows a section of the cave interior rather than an unrestricted self-guided route or the full tour.
