By Carrie Willink<\/h4>\n

A beautiful 5-hour drive from the Atlanta, GA you will find a very unique National Park called Mammoth Cave! It\u2019s located in Kentucky and is home to the world\u2019s longest underground cave system. It\u2019s so long, in fact, that no one actually knows how long it is. More than 400 miles of underground caves and passageways have been surveyed. Surprisingly, the caves extend even beyond that, though the areas are not accessible. With so much area available to visit, it was a good idea to look for some Mammoth Cave camping opportunities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Before we visited in our Escape campervan<\/a>, I was concerned if my girls would like it or be scared or unable to do the hikes. Once we got there and experienced the adventure, we were pleasantly surprised by how family-friendly everything was! There were professional tour guides with us during our time in Mammoth Cave. They not only took the time to help our kids enjoy their time but also learn! Services aside, we were surprised by how awe-inspiring the caves were. There is so much beauty in the dark.<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":22876,"id":22876,"title":"Mammoth_Cave_National_Park_Bat_Child_Learning","filename":"Mammoth_Cave_National_Park_Bat_Child_Learning.jpg","filesize":57520,"url":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_National_Park_Bat_Child_Learning.jpg","link":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/it\/mammoth_cave_national_park_bat_child_learning-2\/","alt":"Tour at Mammoth Cave","author":"53","description":"","caption":"","name":"mammoth_cave_national_park_bat_child_learning-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":0,"date":"2019-07-12 20:47:06","modified":"2019-08-28 19:20:39","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":3024,"height":4032,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_National_Park_Bat_Child_Learning-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_National_Park_Bat_Child_Learning-225x300.jpg","medium-width":225,"medium-height":300,"medium_large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_National_Park_Bat_Child_Learning-768x1024.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":1024,"large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_National_Park_Bat_Child_Learning-768x1024.jpg","large-width":768,"large-height":1024,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_National_Park_Bat_Child_Learning.jpg","1536x1536-width":1152,"1536x1536-height":1536,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_National_Park_Bat_Child_Learning.jpg","2048x2048-width":1536,"2048x2048-height":2048,"blog-preview":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_National_Park_Bat_Child_Learning-600x353.jpg","blog-preview-width":600,"blog-preview-height":353,"post-thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_National_Park_Bat_Child_Learning-1200x1600.jpg","post-thumbnail-width":1200,"post-thumbnail-height":1600,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_National_Park_Bat_Child_Learning.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":225,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":300,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_National_Park_Bat_Child_Learning.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":300,"gform-image-choice-md-height":400,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_National_Park_Bat_Child_Learning.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":450,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":600}},"image_link":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"

Tours at Mammoth Cave<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/h2>\n

While it sounds like the tour guides we had were a nice addition, the caves are not accessible without paying for a tour. I bought a few tickets ahead of time online and we bought more at the visitor\u2019s center when we arrived. They are very organized with many different tours and times. For caves that are not within walking distance of the visitor\u2019s center, they have a free shuttle system set up.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are self-guided tours available at certain times (which still require an admission fee) but I suggest going with a guide. The guides are friendly, informative, and keep bats out of your hair. Okay, that last part I\u2019m not sure about, but that\u2019s what I told myself anyway. The caves are absolutely amazing but even more amazing hearing how they were formed, found and the stories that make our history!
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Historic Tour<\/span><\/h3>\n

This tour was perfect for our family. The young kids (3-6) were able to walk the whole time and loved hearing all the information. They did cool tricks with the lights and shared the history of the caves. This cave will truly show you why the park is called \u201cMammoth.\u201d It\u2019ll blow your mind! <\/span><\/p>\n

Frozen Niagara Tour<\/span><\/h3>\n

This tour is unique with many formations. You\u2019ll be able to see all the different formations such as stalactites, stalagmites, columns, and helictites! Be sure and watch your head! \ud83d\ude42 There are a few stairs but the tour is still considered \u2018easy\u2019 and your kids will love it too! <\/span><\/p>\n

There are many other tours so be sure and read up to what fits you and your family! <\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":22851,"id":22851,"title":"Mammoth_Cave_Naitonal_Park_Walking_In_Cave_Baby","filename":"Mammoth_Cave_Naitonal_Park_Walking_In_Cave_Baby.jpg","filesize":129325,"url":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_Naitonal_Park_Walking_In_Cave_Baby.jpg","link":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/it\/mammoth_cave_naitonal_park_walking_in_cave_baby-2\/","alt":"Frozen Niagara Tour at Mammoth Cave","author":"53","description":"","caption":"","name":"mammoth_cave_naitonal_park_walking_in_cave_baby-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":0,"date":"2019-07-12 20:45:23","modified":"2019-08-28 19:21:40","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":5616,"height":3744,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_Naitonal_Park_Walking_In_Cave_Baby-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_Naitonal_Park_Walking_In_Cave_Baby-300x200.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":200,"medium_large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_Naitonal_Park_Walking_In_Cave_Baby-768x512.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":512,"large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_Naitonal_Park_Walking_In_Cave_Baby-1024x683.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":683,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_Naitonal_Park_Walking_In_Cave_Baby.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1024,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_Naitonal_Park_Walking_In_Cave_Baby.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1365,"blog-preview":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_Naitonal_Park_Walking_In_Cave_Baby-600x353.jpg","blog-preview-width":600,"blog-preview-height":353,"post-thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_Naitonal_Park_Walking_In_Cave_Baby-1200x800.jpg","post-thumbnail-width":1200,"post-thumbnail-height":800,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_Naitonal_Park_Walking_In_Cave_Baby.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":300,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":200,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_Naitonal_Park_Walking_In_Cave_Baby.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":400,"gform-image-choice-md-height":267,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Mammoth_Cave_Naitonal_Park_Walking_In_Cave_Baby.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":600,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":400}},"image_link":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"

Mammoth Cave Camping Locations<\/span><\/h2>\n

When we were looking for a great Mammoth Cave camping location, we knew we needed somewhere that was perfect for our campervan. We stayed right on property at \u201cMammoth Cave National Parks<\/span><\/a>\u201d campground. The part we stayed in had no hook ups, but there were bathrooms and showers for quarters. There was also a place to buy a few basic items, as well as firewood. Finally, they offered a washer and dryer with a small charge to help clean up if needed.<\/span><\/p>\n

The campground was so beautiful with it\u2019s towering trees and calm atmosphere.

Other Things to Know for Mammoth Cave Camping<\/span><\/h2>\n

Food<\/span><\/h3>\n

Inside the park, there is a restaurant with cafeteria-style food and ice cream which is perfect in the summer after a hot hike. They also have gift shops so your little ones can bring home a souvenir, or you can too \ud83d\ude09 <\/span><\/p>\n

Clothing<\/span><\/h3>\n

Be sure pack with the weather in mind for this trip. If you are going in the hot summer you will still need sweatshirts and sometimes coats for the caves. It stays very cold underground!<\/span><\/p>\n

Closures<\/span><\/h3>\n

Check ahead of time for closures. If there has been a lot of snow or ice they will have to close certain areas of the caves. So if you have your heart set on one, you might not get in. In the summer months if there is a lot of rain certain areas may be closed as well. Their website should have updated information. <\/span><\/p>\n

Rules<\/span><\/h3>\n

They have quite a few rules on what you can bring into the caves. Be sure and go over this before you get there and are disappointed. If you have younger kids who don\u2019t want to walk, you are allowed to have a front cloth pack. No back carriers are allowed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Photography<\/h3>\n

If you are wanting pictures you may want to practice your skills in low light settings ahead of time. It\u2019s very dark in the caves and hard to get a good picture.<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":22831,"id":22831,"title":"Diamon_Cave_Dad_Daughter_staircase_to_nowhere","filename":"Diamon_Cave_Dad_Daughter_staircase_to_nowhere.jpg","filesize":112736,"url":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Diamon_Cave_Dad_Daughter_staircase_to_nowhere.jpg","link":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/it\/diamon_cave_dad_daughter_staircase_to_nowhere-2\/","alt":"Diamond Cave dad carrying daughter","author":"53","description":"","caption":"","name":"diamon_cave_dad_daughter_staircase_to_nowhere-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":0,"date":"2019-07-12 20:44:11","modified":"2019-08-28 19:22:24","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":5616,"height":3744,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Diamon_Cave_Dad_Daughter_staircase_to_nowhere-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Diamon_Cave_Dad_Daughter_staircase_to_nowhere-300x200.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":200,"medium_large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Diamon_Cave_Dad_Daughter_staircase_to_nowhere-768x512.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":512,"large":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Diamon_Cave_Dad_Daughter_staircase_to_nowhere-1024x683.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":683,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Diamon_Cave_Dad_Daughter_staircase_to_nowhere.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1024,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Diamon_Cave_Dad_Daughter_staircase_to_nowhere.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1365,"blog-preview":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Diamon_Cave_Dad_Daughter_staircase_to_nowhere-600x353.jpg","blog-preview-width":600,"blog-preview-height":353,"post-thumbnail":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Diamon_Cave_Dad_Daughter_staircase_to_nowhere-1200x800.jpg","post-thumbnail-width":1200,"post-thumbnail-height":800,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Diamon_Cave_Dad_Daughter_staircase_to_nowhere.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":300,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":200,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Diamon_Cave_Dad_Daughter_staircase_to_nowhere.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":400,"gform-image-choice-md-height":267,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/escapecampervans.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Diamon_Cave_Dad_Daughter_staircase_to_nowhere.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":600,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":400}},"image_link":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"

Outside the Park<\/span><\/h2>\n

One of our favorite tours was actually outside of the park called \u201cDiamond Cave.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>It was first found when the slave of the landowner came upon a hole. They lowered the bravest man the could find in town down the hole. He saw the sparkling calcite formations and exclaimed \u201cdiamonds!\u201d Hence where the name \u201cDiamond Cave\u201d came from. <\/span><\/p>\n
