ALERT: The Oregon Caves Chateau will be closed for rehabilitation throughout 2019 and 2020. Cave tours are still available late March through early November. The Oregon Caves is a place of adventure, wonder, and discovery. Join your guide and a small party of fellow cave explorers for a 90-minute tour. The route wends through narrow, twisting passages with ceilings as low as 45 inches! See strangely beautiful of stalactites, stalagmites, and other mysterious calcite flowstones. The route is moderately strenuous and not recommended for people with breathing, heart, knee or back issues. Children must be 42” tall or taller, no exceptions. The cave is 44 degrees year round. Tours are popular in the summer. Arrive early to avoid long waits or closures. Reservations are available at Recreation.gov. Cave tours offered late March to early November. There are a few wonderful trails to explore on the surface.
The local guides make it informative and entertaining to do a tour. We started and did a lil short of a mile hike over top of cliff area with amazing vista views of sprawling forests. Then we got to do the caves. Make a reservation. The temp was nice and cool and it wasn’t too difficult to get around. Our four year old just made it past height minimum of 42inchs. There was a bail out point about 1/4 of the way through but we held steady and made it all the way through. We’ve done a fair amount of caving and I think the coolest part of this cave system was that it’s mostly marble stone.

Considered the largest sea cave in the United States, this site is where Steller sea lions and their cubs take shelter each year. Sea Lion Caves is a privately owned wildlife preserve and bird sanctuary. The Caves has been in operation since 1932 preserving and protecting the wildlife under our care. We are open 363 days a year only closed on Christmas and Thanksgiving day. Our normal hours of operation are 9 am until dusk year round. We are not a zoo and the animals are free to come and go as they please. The sea lions can usually be found at either of four locations on the property; in the Cave, in the water, at the Lookout/rockery, and on other nearby rock ledges. HOWEVER, THE SEA LIONS ARE NOT ALWAYS IN THE CAVE OR MAY BE MIGRATING OUT OF AREA - THEY ARE WILD ANIMALS AND COME AND GO AS THE PLEASE. CALL AHEAD FOR INFORMATION. Self-guided are the rule, but guided tours are available.
Thoroughly enjoyed my visit here..There were plenty of Sealions in the cave.. Stunning views.. lovely gift shop..A shortish walk from the entrance to the lift where u go down to the caves... Definitely recommend going & it gets very busy

We stopped by the entrance to read the signs. We had our dog, so couldn’t explore the caves, but they’re easily accessible. Please read all signs (included in my photos) and practice cleaning your footwear to avoid spreading disease to the bats. We look forward to exploring further.
