Upana Caves

Reviewed By krystalandalex - Campbell River, Canada

We decided to take a day trip from Campbell River Summer of 2019 to the Upana Caves and boy was it an amazing trip. This was a fascinating set of caves off a dirt road. There is little parking and depending on how other visitors park it will be difficult. We will definitely be back with family as it is a must see.
