When porous limestone and dolomite come together, they make the Cave State. With more than 7,000 caves in Missouri, there’s probably a cave close to where you are now. Discover the depths of this natural phenomenon and its ancient connection to the Ozarks in this cave guide.
Where do you find the county with the most caves, the Tower Rock that Lewis and Clark mapped, a living history Lutheran heritage and genealogy site, and a full-size replica of the Vietnam War Memorial in Washington, DC—plus a great brew pub?
It’s cold outside, but there’s still some warm fun to be had at the Lake! Visit a cave with a steady 60-degree temperature, go ice skating, and then have some hot cocoa, or plan that romantic Valentine’s getaway at a resort.
