Marble Arch Caves

Whether you are interested in landscapes and geology, if you like hill walking or leisure cycling, Marble Arch Caves European Geopark has something to offer you. The uniqueness of the Marble Arch Caves coupled with the sheer beauty of Cuilcagh Mountain Park makes this a must see attraction on any visitor itinerary.

Marble Arch Caves European Geopark includes the Marble Arch Caves and the adjacent Cuilcagh Mountain Park. The formation of the caves and mountain dates back over 300 million years, however the discovery of the caves dates back to the 19th century, whilst the creation of the mountain park exists from the late 20th Century.

Lively and informative guides conduct tours past a bewildering variety of cave formations - stalactites glisten above stream ways and chambers while fragile mineral veils and cascades of creamy calcite coat walls and spread as shimmering terraces across rock-strewn floors.

The physical nature of the caves and the sheer quantity of steps leading to and from the caves, can present some difficulty for those with restricted mobility. We regret not being able to offer access to those in wheel chairs for the actual cave tour.
