Embark on an Underground Adventure with Canmore Cave Tours at the Grizzly Classic Men's Artistic Gymnastics Competition.

For gymnastics teams seeking a subterranean escapade during the Grizzly Classic, Canmore Cave Tours offers a unique and thrilling opportunity to explore Rat’s Nest Cave, an untamed cavern beneath Grotto Mountain, near Banff and Canmore, Alberta, Canada. Operating year-round, rain or shine, this natural history tour introduces participants to the hidden wonders beneath the surface.

With a legacy dating back to 1992, Canmore Cave Tours has been a trailblazer in providing extraordinary cave experiences. Their mission, unchanged since inception, is to offer guests an unforgettable journey into the depths of Rat’s Nest Cave. Passionate cavers and advocates for the subterranean world, the guides at Canmore Cave Tours treat every participant as a friend and fellow explorer, sharing the privilege of unveiling the mysteries of the cave.

As the Grizzly Classic attendees join Canmore Cave Tours, they become part of a legacy that spans over 25 years. The company consistently holds the top spot as the #1 thing to do in Canmore and ranks among the top 10 attractions in Alberta. This recognition speaks to the exceptional quality and excitement woven into every cave tour.

The cave experience at Rat’s Nest Cave caters to a spectrum of preferences. While adrenaline-seekers can indulge in extreme caving adventures, Canmore Cave Tours also welcomes those who prefer a more leisurely exploration. Recognizing that each participant enjoys the cave in their unique way, the guides are dedicated to helping gymnastics teams create their own stories and memories within the cavern’s depths.

At the end of the day, tired and perhaps a bit dirty from the cave adventure, participants emerge brimming with excitement and appreciation for the underground marvel they’ve explored. Canmore Cave Tours invites gymnastics teams to transcend the ordinary and add a touch of subterranean magic to their Grizzly Classic experience, crafting memories that echo the whispers of the ancient caverns.

Visit the Canmore Cave Tours website to view tour options and make bookings. Discounts are available for groups of 8 or more. Please call 403-678-8819 to make your group reservation.
