Formed when a lava tube from the Newberry Caldera collapsed roughly 80,000 years ago, the Redmond Caves sit inside city limits, managed jointly by the Bureau of Land Management and the City of Redmond. Five caves are open and free to explore, each numbered, each a short walk from the parking area. Archaeological artifacts found inside document use by Native American tribes going back thousands of years. Bring multiple light sources, sturdy footwear, and watch for rattlesnakes — the caves are open year-round, and no amenities are provided on site.
