An Exciting Spring Ed-Venture & Travel Info for Adults of All Ages
Historic Forestville and Mystery Cave Tour
Venture to southern Minnesota for a day packed with history and
geology. Our first stop is Historic Forestville, a restored 1850’s village
that was once a thriving community. Enjoy a guided walking tour
through the garden, kitchen, Meighen family house and offices, and
general store filled with original 19th century merchandise. The total
walking distance is approximately ¾ mile over 1 1/2 hours, along level
but unpaved surfaces.
Following a picnic lunch, it is off to do some underground exploring at
Mystery Cave, the longest cave in Minnesota. You will see stalactites,
stalagmites, flowstone, fossils, and beautiful underground pools and
learn about the history and geology of the cave. The tour involves ¾ mile
of walking over 1 1/2 hours, on modern paved trails and metal bridges.
Arrive at Gladstone by 7:30 am for your morning coffee and pastry. The bus leaves promptly at 7:45 am and returns
at approximately 4:30 pm. Fee includes coach transportation, tour host, admission fees and guided tours, morning
coffee and pastry, picnic lunch, afternoon snack, and beverage. Register by May 14. No refunds after this date. A
processing fee will be deducted from the refund when canceling before this date. Bring a light jacket or sweater, as
the temperature in the cave is a constant 48° F. Wear sturdy shoes with non-skid soles. Both tours are wheelchair
