Join the Phillymini gang as you drive to the Lost Sea via the Dragon. Your Lost Sea adventure begins with a guided tour of the caverns. This involves a 3/4 mile round-trip walk on wide sloping pathways. While touring the caverns and underground lake our guides will tell of the cavern's exciting and colorful history. They will also explain the fascinating geological development of the immense cavern rooms and rare formations. At the bottom of the cave you will board a glass-bottom boat for an exciting trip on the Lost Sea, America's Largest underground lake. After our group tour we will motor for a group lunch in Tellico Plains, then a photo OP at Bald River Falls and then return to Fontana Village via the Cherohala Skyway.
