Is this the Coolest Spot in Hershey?

When the temperature hits the 90’s, we know just what to do. We head for Indian Echo Caverns, located along the beautiful Swatara Creek. It’s a refreshing 52 degrees all year long. Hershey Bed and Breakfast

Travel less than 10 minutes from The Inn at Westwynd Farm and you can experience a fantastic journey of geological wonders – sparkling crystal clear lakes, intimate passageways and room after room of almost magical beauty.

It’s a great add-on to any visit to Hershey!

Like many caverns in the Mid-Atlantic states, Indian Echo Caverns is a limestone cave. Cut through Beekmantown limestone, which is over 440 million years old, the caves were formed through the erosive properties of water. As time progressed, geological forces led to an “uplift” of the surrounding limestone, eventually allowing more and more water to flow through the formation. As the water flowed over the limestone, it began to create small crevices. These small crevices led to larger ones and eventually, over a series of millions of years, it created the caverns as they are today.
