Mammoth Cave’s Off-Season (and Why You Should Go Then)

Mammoth Cave National Park in the offseason, especially winter, offers a unique and serene beauty with icicles decorating the Historic Entrance and occasional snow blanketing the hillsides, creating a peaceful, almost magical atmosphere. The cave’s constant temperature of 54°F provides a cozy refuge from the cold outside, making cave tours more comfortable and less crowded, often allowing visitors to enjoy smaller groups and a more intimate experience.
