History:
The caves in Little Huson Caves Regional Park are the result of thousands of years of natural erosion and karst formation. Karst landscapes form when water slowly dissolves limestone or other soluble rocks, creating caves, sinkholes, and unique rock formations. The park features several remarkable features, including natural rock bridges, underground tunnels, and serene pools of crystal-clear water.
The Hike:
A short, well-maintained trail leads from the parking area to the caves, making it a family-friendly adventure. Wooden walkways and viewing platforms allow visitors to safely explore the caves and surrounding formations.
Getting There:
20 minutes off Island Highway (Hwy 19), take the Zeballos turn-off just north of Woss onto a gravel logging road; Follow the signs to Little Huson Cave Regional Park.
