Unlocking the Hidden Worlds of Cladagh Glen
Eco-Adventure - Family Explorer Activity
Welcome to the
Marble Arch Caves
Discover magical moments in one of Europe’s finest show caves. Set in the heart of the Marble Arch Caves UNESCO Global Geopark, the Marble Arch Caves pay homage to the fascinating secrets of a world of subterranean rivers, winding passages, lofty chambers and an array of delicate cave formations.
A carefully constructed path enables you to comfortably traverse the Marble Arch Caves whilst discrete lighting displays the cave features and delicate cave formations to their best. Our enthusiastic guides will lead you through awe-inspiring passages and further enhance your experience by interpreting the stories of this wonderous show cave.
County Fermanagh is often referred to as the “Lakeland Paradise” and features an abundance of lakes , rivers and cave systems. It is ironic that our inclement weather provides these swelling rivers and lakes with an abundance of fresh water.
At the Marble Arch Caves we take full advantage of our rainy days by offering tailor-made tours whereby our visitors can experience the show cave as it comes alive with grumbling subterranean sounds, cascading waters and the boom of torrent rivers as they forge through cave passages. On a drier day, why not indulge yourself with a tour of the show cave and sit back on a subterranean boat trip as it cruises along a calm tranquil river. Afterwards, disembark to continue your guided walking tour through chambers and passages and explore the treasures of the majestic caves. Remember whatever the weather, whether it’s a fun day out, a family trip or an opportunity to explore something new – you’ll find it here with us!

Fab example of amazing creation! Really enjoyed this visit. Tour guide was Eoin and he was knowledgeable and patient with our three young kids. There are about 150 steps up and down which our kids managed thanks to the slow and steady pace of the tour guide.
Would love to see a more balanced display of information in the centre, rather than all of it based on one school of thought on the earth's history. wj773/10/2019 - fascinating we had a very fascinating tour through the caves with a guide (Connor) who with great knowledge explained and answered all our questions;
since we were a very small group (3 people), he also showed us some special things which you might miss in a larger group
recommendation: come right when they open, so there is the chance that your group is smallHeide S8/10/2019 - Enjoyable tour. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the caves on the 25th July with Tom who was very knowledgeable and witty. PaulineS16137/27/2020

- Wow it was as beautiful as I expected We went on a day where there had been a lot of rainfall so the boat entrance in was closed (we called ahead and was aware of this before we arrived). However this had no affect on our experience we had a great time. The wait for our tour was 40 minutes but they had a cafe and information areas we used while we waited. There is also a walk that we could have done.
The caves were well lite up and informative for both adults and children. kimgfamilyfun4/19/2019 - It rocked! On arrival to the Marble Arch cave centre they have a one way system with hand sanitizer ready at the door- we were greeted at reception by Claire whom was very helpful! We had tea and a quick bite in the cafe below before our tour started which was lovely and reasonably priced, our tour guide was Victor and he was awesome! Lots of information about the caves and rock formation with some fun jokes R90IUlauram9/25/2020
