Cherney Maribel Caves

Summary:

  • A rugged cliff line along West Twin River separates the gently rolling, partially wooded upland area from the wooded lowland adjacent to the river. The foot of the cliff line contains several medium to small caves and openings in the rock layers.

  • Several caves and crevices are open and accessible by a series of trails to the public when the park is officially open, and some caves that are open only for set tours during certain times of the year.

  • Natural springs, which seep from the limestone rock, flow over moss covered rocks and trickle to the river. Select wildlife to the area, rare ferns, varieties of creeping plants, and wild flowers are found among the rocks and within the wooded growth.
