An adventure created by nature
with fun, serenity, beauty, mystery, challenge, history and education
all rapped up in one! Lost River is enjoyed each year by thousands
of guests of all ages.
Your exploration of Lost River can be as easy or as ambitious as
you choose to make it. During your ¾ mile adventure you can
choose to stay on the boardwalk, or accept the challenge of caves
such as The Dungeon and The Lemon Squeezer; it’s up to you!
Many people ask us what is the best time of the year to come. Our
reply is:
Spring – Offers some of the best views with no leaves on the
trees The water over the falls is usually high from spring thaw.
Some caves still have ice – some so much they cannot be opened
yet. There are many seasonal waterfalls coming in from sides of
gorge due to spring thaw which are not there during summer or dryer
weather. Photography is probably at its best.
Summer – Usually cooler in the gorge by at least 10 degrees
and a breeze. All caves are generally open during this season. Flora
and plant life is spectacular, lush and green. It is very beautiful,
and a great time for picture taking.
Early fall- Days are brisk, foliage color is spectacular and there is a wonderful
smell of fall in the air. Water. Great time for fall foliage photography.
Late fall – If the water level is up, again many waterfalls coming in from
sides due to heavy rains. May have days where there is snow on the boardwalks.
Many of the leaves are off the trees which expands view area for picture taking.
So– Every time of the season at Lost River is beautiful. We have never
had anyone say any different. Come see for yourselves!
