Timpanogos Cave National Monument Visitor Center
The National Park Service visitor center in American Fork Canyon has exhibits, a man-made cave and free Junior Ranger booklets. There is no entrance fee to visit, but the cave tours need a paid ticket bought ahead on recreation.gov. The park's own pages give the season as May through mid October for the visitor center and late May to early or mid October for tours, so by mid October call 801-756-5239 before driving up.
