Glacial Caves

Mazes of Granite

Board the White Mountain Express Gondola to Loon Peak Summit for another world of adventure, including Loon's glacial caves.

Located in the forest just below Loon Peak summit, Loon's caves were formed by granite boulders deposited during the last Ice Age. Kids and kids-at-heart love to scramble through, under and around the jumble of hulking granite masses.

Access to the Glacial Caves is included with your Gondola Skyride ticket.

Footwear

Athletic footwear is highly recommended.

Weather

Foul weather can make the rocks slick and difficult to navigate and therefore forcing a temporary closure of the caves. If you're visiting after (or during) wet weather, check with a Loon team member for the status of the caves.

Caves Hours

The caves open with the Gondola Skyride, and close one hour prior to the last Gondola departs the summit each day.

During wedding ceremonies, you may experience a brief delay in accessing the caves.
