13Mammoth Cave National Park, Kentucky
May is a great time to visit this park. While the temperature can climb as high as 80 degrees Fahrenheit, the climate is moderate and, to be honest, if you’re only going to visit the popular Mammoth Cave itself, the weather isn’t a major issue. This is actually the longest underground cave system known to man.
Here you can explore over 400 miles of passageways. You can choose from several different tours. They range from a good hour to two and a half hours. Most are rated easy, and family-friendly and should be reserved in advance to avoid a lengthy wait. Of course, while the caves here are the main attraction, there are a number of different things to do and see here. You can go biking, canoeing, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, and more!
