Venture Nearly 175-Feet Deep Below The Earth At These One-Of-A-Kind Caverns In Alabama
Alabama is home to hundreds of recorded caves. In fact, the Yellowhammer State has one of the highest densities of caves in the United States. Cavers come from all across the country, and even world, to explore our caves. One Alabama cave that everyone should explore at least once is Rickwood Caverns, which you can read all about below.
Rickwood Caverns is a cave that's located near Warrior, Alabama. It's also the main attraction at Rickwood Caverns State Park.
Because fossils of marine life and numerous shell fragments have been discovered inside Rickwood Caverns, many people believe the cave was carved from an ocean bed.

To experience something incredibly unique this Christmas season, you'll want to visit Santa's Underground Workshop, which will take place inside Rickwood Caverns from December 1st to December 23rd (2:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.).
