This is a hidden treasure of southern Wisconsin. You can visit year-round and the tour of the cave lasts roughly an hour. I highly recommend all tourists and those visiting relatives & friends check this out at least once. And for locals bringing those relatives/friends, buy a Key to the Cave yearly pass!
