SAN ANTONIO – Looking for some family-friendly activities for the summer?
At Natural Bridge Caverns -- a natural attraction well beneath Earth’s surface -- you can discover massive, otherworldly formations. Each is ultimately formed by the slow passage of time.
We all know how draining the South Texas heat can be. At the caverns, the temperature inside the caves is a cool 70 degrees year-round, so it’s a nice place to escape the heat.
Activities to explore at Natural Bridge Caverns
The Hidden Passages Tour gets its name because of the shadows that dance over the delicate formations and the mystery that awaits in every shadow.
