Tucked into the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest, Cave Junction sits about 40 miles south of Grants Pass, a friendly riverfront city brimming with beauty, antiques, and wineries. Surrounded by an array of attractions, the obvious star of Cave Junction is the Oregon Cave National Monument. The Discovery Cave Tour takes you on a 90-minute journey through the cave, descending 220 feet below the ground for an underground hike. During the summer, you can book a Candlelight Cave Tour, which lets you walk through the belly of the ancient cave guided by the glow of a candle lantern. The caves can fill up quickly in the summer, so be sure to make your online reservation in advance.
