Mammoth Cave National Park
preserves the cave system and a part of the Green River valley and hilly
country of south central Kentucky. This is the world's longest cave
system, with more than 365 miles explored. Early guide Stephen Bishop
called the cave a "grand, gloomy and peculiar place," but its vast
chambers and complex labyrinths have earned its name: Mammoth.
Mammoth Cave National Park was established in 1941 to protect the
unparalleled underground labyrinth of caves, the rolling hilly country
above, and the Green River valley. Since then, ongoing study and
exploration have shown the park to be far more complex than ever
imagined, hosting a broad diversity of species living in specialized and
interconnected ecosystems. The park's challenge is to balance these
remarkable and sometimes fragile living networks with the public's
enjoyment of them.
