Newfoundland and Labrador - Caves and Caverns - Field Trip Ideas
Corner Brook Cave - Corner Brook
Corner Brook Cave is a wild cave which is open on spelunking trips. The cave is about one kilometer long. The Corner Brook Stream has cut deep into the limestone and exposed a variety of caves, including: a cave above a cave, a waterfall, huge caverns and muddy crawls.
This caving trip requires climbing, crawling, stooping and maybe getting wet. The cave is unfortunately flooded when water in the Corner Brook rises, so safe visits require experienced local guides. Never visit this cave on your own.
There are two operators who offer tours into Corner Brook Cave,
My Newfoundland Adventures
and
Explore Newfoundland.
Both operators provide first aid kit, headlamps, helmets, harnesses, and all safety equipment. Coveralls and waterproof rubber boots are rented.
You can even go in the winter and snowshoe to the caves, and see
dramatic cavernous rooms, stunning mineral stalactites, and an underground river, and discover the geology behind the formation of these caves, abseil (rappel) to an underground river, on
this Newfoundland cave tour day trip.
