What is CaveSim?

CaveSim is an educational experience that makes learning effortless and fun. We create amazingly realistic caves, and we bring the mobile versions of our caves to schools and public events around the country. Our educators often spend over 100 days a year on the road, teaching kids of all ages about science, conservation, math, history, and many other subjects. We help children love learning, and because we build everything ourselves, kids see that they can create amazing things by excelling in school and following their passions.

What we build:

Awe-inspiring caves of all sizes

In addition to teaching world-class programs, our team designs and creates stunning caves. We build mobile, permanent, and modular portable caves. All of our patented systems include state-of-the-art computer scoring to create an interactive experience for participants – as visitor explore, they get real-time feedback about how well they’re doing at avoiding the artificial cave formations, cave critters, and artifacts. After exiting, participants review their score on computers. We believe in using technology for a purpose: to engage kids and get them excited about learning about science, conservation, and exploration. 

We believe:

Kids who know better become adults who do better.

CaveSim fosters a love of life-long learning in everyone we teach, and our programs inspire kids to understand the importance of science and conservation. We strive to make the world a better place through education, and these generous sponsors help make this possible. Being a sponsor is easy; please help us today:

How do CaveSim programs work?

We bring an amazingly realistic mobile cave to your school or event, along with a vertical caving tower, cave rescue gear, and more. Students learn important content as they explore and have fun.  

How much does a program cost?

CaveSim programs are surprisingly affordable, especially given how much your students will learn. Our prices are competitive with the cost of a typical field trip, but we bring our program right to you.
