Timpanogos Cave Tours

June 3, 2026 UtahAgenda

Timpanogos Cave National Monument sits high in the Wasatch Mountains. The cave system consists of three spectacularly decorated caverns. Helictites and anthodites are just a few of the many dazzling formations to be found in the many chambers. As visitors climb to the cave entrance, on a hike gaining over 1,000 ft in elevation, they are offered incredible views of American Fork Canyon.

Cave tour fees are waived during the mid-August weekend as part of the National Park Service Fee-Free Weekends.
