Explore the Bonnechere Caves, located in Eganville, Ontario, and take a trip back into time. The caves are a post-glacial formation formed in limestone that dates back to the Ordovician time period, somewhere in the neighbourhood of 500,000,000 years ago.
Take a guided tour of the caves, which are safe and educational for all ages. These one-hour-long tours depart every 20-30 minutes except on weekdays in September, when tours leave at 11:00 AM, 1:00 PM, and 3:00 PM. Reservations are not necessary. Learn about the stalactites that hang from the ceiling and comb the walls for the thousands of fossils of coral and sea creatures embedded in the limestone walls.

The limestone that visitors walk through during a visit to the Caves was deposited as layers of mud and silt during the Ordovician time period, between 400 and 500 million years ago, before the development or evolution of fish and long before dinosaurs.
Bats are rarely seen in the caves during the summer, but visit during the last week in September and first two weekends in October to see some early hibernators.
