Located in Pinnacles National Park near Soledad,, Balconies Cave Trail is an exciting and adventurous trail perfect for thrill-seekers of all ages. The perimeter of the route offers hikers panoramic views of rock formations before descending into some interesting caves. Visitors should prepare for a moderately challenging climb, as it is relatively steep in places throughout the 2.6-mile route. Along with the stunning scenery, explorers may be lucky enough to spot tarantulas, big-eared bats, and other native wildlife. A headlamp is essential for the cave portion of this route. Additionally, water can be knee-deep so bring appropriate shoes. Enjoy magnificent geological formations while exploring the spooky caves!
