Though the 1 hour tour into this cave costs $10/person (and no, your National Park Pass doesn’t let you bypass the fee – we tried), it’s worth it. To go from the heights of the sequoias to the innermost stalactites and stalagmites of this below the surface cave was absolutely amazing.

Tips:

Bring a light jacket. Tickets are bought at the Lodgepole vistor center. Allow yourself 1.5 hours from the time you leave Lodgepole till you’re at the front entrance to Crystal Cave (the drive to the cave from Lodgepole takes 45 minutes, and there is a half hour hike down to the cave from the parking/restroom area). Take my advice – tour the cave in the early/middle afternoon when the sun is strongest. Your body will thank you.
