I thought I knew about every cool spot in the state worth checking out.

Yet, I was blown away by a spot that I had never heard about until 2022.

It also caught my eye after blowing up on social media in the last couple months.

I will share with you a video that got me interested in visiting this spot, just below.

@pauiietravels You need a permit to enter. They’re free and easy to get. You also need a headlight and a helmet. I only took mine off for the shot. And as always; be careful and leave no trace!📍Stephens gap, Alabama #alabama #alabamanature #cave #waterfall #cavewaterfall #thingstodoinalabama #hiking #hiketok #granolagirl #hiddengems #stephensgap #stephensgapcave #fyp #foryoupage #traveltips #traveltok #secretplaces #coolcaves #americanroadtrip #usaroadtrip ♬ original sound - ♡ꕤ♡

Now that I have been there, I am pretty obsessed with sharing it with others in Alabama. Plus, the other great videos that show it off.

What a unique and cool place with a waterfall inside a cave.

You just do not see that in caves.

@inlovewithwanderlust What a unique experience to see a waterfall inside a cave!! ⛰️😍 Just a heads up 👉The Stephens Gap Cave Trail requires a permit before visiting. The permits are free and can be obtained at: https://permits.scci.org/ . Oh Make sure to wear good shoes because it is rocky heading into the cave and can be slippery!#Inlovewithwanderlust #Alabama #TravelUSA #StephensGapCave #Cave #Waterfall #Hiking #CouplesWhoTravel #Nature #Outdoors ♬ Send Me on My Way - Guy Meets Girl
