Things to do at Florida Caverns State Park
- Guided Cave Tour EasyRV parking available
The ranger-led cave tour is the park's signature activity and the only publicly accessible air-filled cave tour in the Florida state park system. The roughly 45-minute walk passes illuminated limestone formations including stalactites, stalagmites, columns, and draperies. RV parking is available at the visitor center lot.
- Blue Hole Spring EasyRV parking available
Blue Hole is a spring-fed swimming area with clear, cool water popular for a quick dip after a cave tour. It features a designated swim area, picnic tables, and a nearby parking lot. Depths drop off quickly, so swimmers should stay within marked zones.
- Chipola River Paddling ModerateRV parking available
The Chipola River runs through the park and is a popular paddling route for canoes and kayaks. Paddlers pass the Natural Bridge, where the river briefly disappears underground through a karst feature. Kayak and canoe rentals are available at the park concession.
- Bluff, Beech, and Caverns Trail System EasyRV parking available
A network of hiking trails explores hardwood forests, sinkholes, and limestone bluffs above the Chipola River. Loops range from short interpretive walks to longer forest routes of several miles. Trailheads share parking with the visitor center and picnic areas.
- Equestrian and Multi-Use Trails ModerateRV parking available
Florida Caverns has dedicated equestrian trails through pine flatwoods and river bottom, accessible from a separate horse trailer parking area. The trails are also open to hikers and mountain bikers. The equestrian lot can accommodate larger rigs with horse trailers.
- Visitor Center and CCC History EasyRV parking available
The visitor center features exhibits on cave geology, local wildlife, and the Civilian Conservation Corps workers who built the park's original infrastructure in the 1930s. A short interpretive loop outside showcases historic stone buildings. Ample day-use parking accommodates RVs and tow vehicles.
- Ranger-Led Interpretive Programs EasyRV parking available

How to get to Florida Caverns State Park
The park sits just north of Marianna off State Road 167 and is easily reached from Interstate 10, about an hour west of Tallahassee and roughly two hours east of Pensacola. From the Panama City area, the drive is about 70 miles north via US 231. The route is flat with no mountain grades or tunnel restrictions, making it straightforward for larger RVs, though the park's interior roads are narrow and winding with low-hanging tree limbs, so drivers of tall rigs should use marked campground loops. The closest major airport for fly-and-rent travelers is Tallahassee International Airport (TLH), with Pensacola International (PNS) a secondary option.
