Infants and Toddlers

Elk Herd

Penn’s Cave Infants and Toddlers Policy

There are no minimum age limits for our tours. We have had many visitors take their infants and toddlers through the cave and on the wildlife tour without any incidents, but, as with any tourist attraction, decisions whether to embark on a tour with an infant or toddler are up to the parents or guardians of the infants/toddlers. 

Carriers, strollers and similar devices not allowed beyond the Visitors Center exit leading toward the cavern. Parents and guardians may hand carry their infants and toddlers and hold the infants/toddlers in their laps during the cavern tour. Carriers and strollers are also not permitted on the farm-nature-wildlife tours; again, parents and guardians may carry their infants and toddlers and hold the infants/toddlers on their laps during the farm-nature-wildlife tour as well.

Regulation approved life jackets are on our boats but not required to be worn for the tour. There is no charge to wear our life jackets. If preferred, our guests may bring their own adult and/or infant/toddler sized life jacket(s) for themselves and/or any others in their group. 

Tour rates apply for ages 2 and up.
