4.5Inner Space Cavern(707 reviews) - pleasantly surprised Sunday: 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Spent 2-3 hours Caverns & Caves
Inner Space Cavern was discovered in 1963 by the Texas Highway Department. During construction of Interstate 35, they were required to do regulation core testing, which required them to drill into the ground. As they did this, they inadvertently drilled into the cave 8 times out of the 20 samples they took. Once they lost those 8 drill bits, they knew they hit a cave. They searched all over the surrounding area but could not find any access into the cave. So, they drilled a 2 foot wide hole down through 33.5 feet of limestone bedrock. The hole became known as the Discovery Hole as it was the very first entrance into the cave (and the only one for several months!). As they explored, they have found over five miles of cave, making Inner Space Cavern the fourth largest cavern in Texas!See more..

If you're in the area, the White Shaman tour is not to be missed. The tour departs every Sat at 12:30pm at the White Shaman preserve gate (a little west of Seminole Canyon SP) on Hwy 90. Cost of the tour was $10 per person and well worth it. The walk to and from the shelter was moderately difficult. Getting to the shelter requires walking down and up into a brushy canyon. Lot's of loose rock and steep terrain that makes for uneven footing. Once at the shelter, there is a steep, narrow rock staircase to climb up and then about 5 ft of slick rock face. The walk back from the shelter gets your heart racing. The quality of the pictographs are spectacular. It's a short panel but the details are stunning. Combine that with the excellent and knowledgeable archaeologist /tour guide from the Shumla School and it's an experience to remember. We were at the shelter for about an hour(ish). All in all, it was about a 2 hour trip.See more..
