Camps Gulf Cave is located in Fall
Creek Falls State Park in Van Buren County Tennessee. Access is prohibited
to much of the cave from September 1st through March 31st to protect the hibernating bats.
The entrance to Camps Gulf Cave
is located at the base of a 120 foot tall bluff and actually has two
entrances both of which are partially hidden by a large berm of dirt
and rocks. Camp's Gulf Cave is one of
Tennessee's longest caves
with almost 7 miles of known passage ways.
Also located in this area are at least 3 more caves. The most visited
of these is Camp's Gulf #2 which is
1/2 mile further up the hollow on
the opposite side valley.
