Underground Boat Tours In Red River Gorge, Kentucky

Ever wondered what lies beneath the mountains of Eastern Kentucky? The Gorge Underground Boat Tour takes visitors on an unforgettable journey through a 100-year-old flooded limestone mine hidden beneath Red River Gorge. Climb aboard a specially designed cave boat and glide across crystal-clear water as your guide leads you through mysterious underground passageways. Illuminated rock walls, fascinating geological formations, and the quiet beauty of the underground world create an experience unlike anything above ground. Along the way, entertaining guides share stories about the mine's history, its hidden secrets, and the people who once worked deep beneath the Kentucky hills.


Located in Rogers, Kentucky, The Gorge Underground offers a relaxing 30-minute guided boat adventure that's perfect for families, couples, and visitors who want to explore without kayaking or paddleboarding. The boat accommodates up to 20 passengers, and children ages three and older are welcome. Underwater lighting and a special viewing panel help reveal the incredible scenery beneath the surface. With underground temperatures remaining around 52 degrees year-round, it's a refreshing escape from the summer heat and a wonderful rainy-day activity.


After discovering the mysteries beneath Red River Gorge, return to your cabin at Unplugged Kentucky for a peaceful evening surrounded by nature.
