No hiking required. Depending on amount of visitors you may walk a little distance from your car to the shop/cave entrance-along driveway. Constant 54 degrees inside cave. Light jacket, parka or sweatshirt would be sufficient. Water drips sporadically and we've had recent rains so more seepage likely. I had on flip flops, my feet got wet, it's very chilly inside the cave especially when water is dripping on you. The tour is about 30 minutes.
