• The Lost Canyon Cave and Nature Trail – Ridgedale Missouri
• Love This 2

The gorgeous Ozark Mountains, located at the crossing of the states of Missouri, Arkansas, and Oklahoma, impress by their peaks over 2,500 feet, astonishing waterfalls, old rock formations, and breathtaking landscapes.

But one site that stands out from the Ozarks is for sure Top of the Rock. Here you can find unique accommodations, recreation, and attractions. The Branson Resort offers various types of rooms and services, delicious cuisine at Osage Restaurant , or a casual dining experience at Buffalo Bar . For wine lovers, there is even a Wine Cellar that serves tastings of fine wines, whiskeys, and more. 

Top of the Rock site offers several things to do. You can spend your day having a nice picnic, relaxing in the sun or swim at Table Rock Lake . You can venture into Talking Rocks Cavern on a guided walking tour, or you can explore the numerous Native American artifacts at the Ancient Ozarks Natural History Museum . 

However, the most popular activity is the Lost Canyon Cave and nature trail. Throughout the tour, you will see the typography of the Ozarks, stunning waterfalls, and marvelous rock formations that will grasp your attention. And of course, the crown of the trip, the Canyon Cave that contains an astonishing waterfall inside. 

If you do not like to hike and walk long trails on a mountain, this is the tour that you want to go in. One of the fun parts of the trip is that you can make the tour in a comfortable ride on a golf cart. But if you want to walk instead, you can also do that with a tour guide. Have in mind though that this is not a trip for proper hiking lovers and active persons.

The golf cart tour is more suitable for friends, couples, families, for older individuals and small children who don’t want to walk around nature and explore that much. The carts can hold up to four people. You don’t need any special equipment, but the driver must be at least 18 years old to drive the golf cart.

Where it is and how to get there?

The exact location of the site is 7 miles south of the Branson Landing and about 10 – 15 minutes to the strip, around 20 minutes to Silver Dollar City.

The closest airports to the site are Branson Airport and Springfield-Branson National Airport. At the moment, there is no bus or transportation provided by the resort, but there are several taxi services available and rental car agency options.

When is the best time to make this trip?

According to the Top of the Rock visitors’ opinions on review forums, the spring and autumn are the two seasons that stand out. In spring, you can admire the beautiful redbuds and blossom trees that attract attention along the road. And in autumn, the beautiful colors of the foliage are painting the landscapes offering an astonishing view.

In winter, the weather is getting a little bit colder. You can not admire the greenery, but you can see the rock better without the leaves. In summer, the weather is good, only that it is a little bit crowded.

How much does it cost?

The tour with the electric cart it costs:

• Children (Ages 4-11 ) $15 
• Children 3 and Under – Free

There is an insurance fee for 8$, but most of the visitors’ said that is not worth it. In addition to the views and stunning landscapes, you can pay an extra 5$ for the Ancient Ozarks Natural History Museum . 

The guided tour payment information is only available in a package, and it contains both the Lost Canyon Cave & Nature Trail and the Ancient Ozarks Natural History Museum:

• Adults $38 
• Children (Ages 4-11) $18 

The visiting program is from 8:00 AM – 45 minutes before sunset , for Spring, Summer, and Autumn. For the winters’ months, check the program here: December , January & February .

What will you see during the trip?

The trip consists of a 2 and a half-mile nature trail as you explore the Top of the Rock Lost Canyon. Your journey will begin at the Top of the Rock Welcome Center. Here you can take either the guided tour or the electric golf-carts.  

As you start, you will be driving on a paved road throughout nature. You can see the breathtaking views from the cart, but there are also opportunities to park it and get out and take beautiful photos together with your companions. Alongside the trip, you will see stunning rock formations and waterfalls. You will pass over some covered Amish bridges, and enjoy beautiful views of the Table Rock Lake. As you get closer to the Canyon Cave, you will see the Bat Bar from where you can buy sodas, beers, or cocktails. 

Passing through the Canyon Cave, you will admire the astonishing waterfall. Unfortunately, here you don’t have space where to stop your cart and explore in detail the cave. As you go out of the cave, you will see more gorgeous views of the Ozark mountains until the end. 

This tour lasts approximately 40-50 minutes. But you can do it in 25-30 minutes or take a whole hour and enjoy stopping along the way and admire the beautiful views.

Top of the Rock site offers a great way to spend your time with your family and friends. It is a perfect location for company meetings or employee retreats as well. It offers accommodations, various restaurants, golf courses, and spa centers. But the most popular activities at the Top of the Rock are the ones outdoor through which you can explore and admire the beautiful Ozark Mountains.

Top of the Rock Lost Canyon Cave and Trail, provides a one-of-a-kind nature park experience, where you will pass through covered Amish bridges, marvel at dramatic natural rock formations and waterfalls.

We loved this adventure. It was a self guided golf cart tour through caves, waterfalls, scenic views of Tablerock Lake, and massive amounts of beautiful trees and incredible scenery. Do not follow the directions on this app or your Apple Maps. Both took us to the wrong place. You have to go to “Johnny Morris’ Top of the Rock Ozarks Heritage Preserve”. It cost $39 per person and the golf carts are 2 or 4 seaters. That price gets you the golf cart self guided tour and the museum. Worth the money!!!

This was easily our favorite place excursion while in Branson. The views were gorgeous and we loved traveling the property. The drinks at the Bat Bar were also a fun experience.

Yes it was pricey. But the kids and parents enjoyed it. Lots of places to park dart and snap pictures. The bat bar was fun. It took us a little over one hour to complete.

Was pricey on paper, but was worth every penny to do the golf cart trail! Absolutely stunning views and breathtaking features.

Excellent family attraction. Loved the golf carts!

This was my favorite outing on my entire vacation. It is very well done and fun for the whole family. Have your camera charged up. The golf carts and path are in good condition and safe. You can take your time or zoom through, whatever floats your boat. Attached is the best natural history museum in the states I’m convinced. Plan a whole day, you’ll love it.

Wow! My whole family loved the trail. We drove a golf cart and there was plenty of areas to stop and get out to take pictures. Several beautiful waterfalls and a cave. Our favorite stop on our road trip this year, definitely recommend!

Korolyov or Korolev is an industrial city in Moscow Oblast, Russia, well known as the cradle of Soviet and Russian space exploration. As of the 2010 Census, its population was 183,402, the largest as a science city. As of 2018, the population was more than 222,000 people. It was known as Kaliningrad from 1938 to 1996 and served as the leading Soviet center for production of anti-tank and air-defense guns. In 1946, in the aftermath of World War II, the artillery plant was reconstructed for production of rockets, launch vehicles, and spacecraft, under the guidance of Russian scientist and academician Sergei Korolev, who envisioned, consolidated and guided the activities of many people in the Soviet space-exploration program. The plant later became known as the RKK Energia; when the Vostok space vehicle was being developed, this research center was designated as NII-88 or POB 989.
