Help Preserve Our Natural Wonder
The protection of our fragile underground environment is the primary responsibility of everyone who visits Glenwood Caverns. To protect the cave and the interests of all who enjoy this natural wonder, both now and in the future, we request your assistance by practicing the National Cave Association’s motto:
Take only pictures, leave only footprints, kill only time.
Your cooperation and understanding will help ensure that this natural wonder will survive for another 4 million years.
Accessibility
The NEW Glenwood Gondola and Adventure Park, including the Gift Shop and the Lookout Grille, are wheelchair-accessible. Because of the stairs and walkways that allow for safe foot travel through the cave’s natural terrain, we’re unable to allow wheelchairs or strollers into the caverns. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but are bound by Mother Nature’s creation and the safety of our valued guests.
Smoking
Smoking is allowed only in the designated smoking areas. Smoking or the use of any tobacco or marijuana products is prohibited in the Gondola cabins, inside the Visitor’s Center, including the restaurant and gift shop, and inside the cave.
Payment
Glenwood Caverns is cashless. We accept: Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, or traveler’s checks. Payment is due upon arrival. Sorry, we do not accept personal checks.
Transportation
Free parking is available at the Glenwood Gondola base and additional parking is located a short distance away at Lot D (202 Centennial St). To minimize parking congestion, we encourage guests to experience Glenwood Springs by walking, biking or taking the bus to the Park.
