 Lost River Caverns
 

Begin an adventure through the Lost River Caverns, nature's underground wonderland.  Located in Hellertown, PA, this chamber provides a mysterious scene formed by the activity of groundwater traveling through cracks in the limestone 250,000 years ago. After exploring the cavern, visit the Gilman Museum to see a collection of unique minerals, curiosities, and gems. Stop by the gift shop for souvenirs or uncover gemstones at the Gem Mill. Reservations are required, so be sure to call ahead!

Two children watching a movie

Watch a Movie


Head to our local theatres to watch a movie the kids will love. View selected showings through an immersive 3D experience while listening to the best in Digital Surround Sound at the IMAX or enjoy a meal at the AMC for a Dine-In experience. If you are looking for old-time ambiance and pricing, the Hamburg Strand is a must. GoggleWorks' Boscov's Theatre specializes in art and independent films that are well worth checking out, especially with older children.
