A Trip Deep Below the Surface of the Lake of the Ozarks
Show caves are wild caves that have been "tamed" through tremendous work and expense. Paved walkways, bridges, and hand rails have been constructed, and lights have been installed for the convenience of viewing nature's underground beauty with little effort and very safely. No special clothing or equipment is necessary. Want-to-be spelunkers can experience geology, hydrology, and anthropology in these underground classrooms.
One of the best things about visiting a cave is that no matter what the weather or season, the temperature is approximately 50-60 degrees year-round, varying slightly with each cave: warm in the winter, cool in the summer. The Lake area is blessed with four show caves (out of Missouri's 22) and is one of the only tourist destinations in the United States with four show caves within 30 miles of each other.
Bridal Cave, located near Camdenton, is among the most-visited attractions in the area. Long before it was a magnet for tourists, it was used by the Osage Native Americans for weddings, giving Bridal Cave its name. Visitors who take the tour will hear that story and more as they walk past beautiful formations and the crystal-clear Mystery Lake.
