Mammoth Cave tours, Green River Ferry impacted by weather

MAMMOTH CAVE, Ky. – Mammoth Cave National Park has had to make some changes to its operations Monday following severe weather.

According to Mammoth Cave, cave tours will be modified and the Green River Ferry is closed until further notice.

All secondary roads are also closed due to downed trees. There has also been a loss of electricity in a portion of the cave, park officials say.

There is no power or internet service at the administrative areas and the concessions operations. However, offices and most visitor services remain open at this time.

Mammoth Cave Parkway, Cave City Road, and Brownsville Road have been cleared of downed trees and are open to vehicles.

Park trails are also open but have not been surveyed for fallen or hazardous trees, so please use caution. Cave tours are running, but some of the tours have been rerouted to other areas of the cave that still have power.

Park crews are working to clear remaining roads and are also working with Kentucky Utilities to restore power as soon as possible.
