Sightseeing
This hidden gem, which is about a 45 minute drive from Ottawa, is a marble cave which is thousands of years old. There was a large glacier that melted and water got trapped under it, forcing cracks in the rocks. The marble of Lusk Cave wore away quicker than the rocks, which formed the beautiful cave we now have.
If you're looking for an adventure, this is your sign. This cave takes about four hours round trip and is 10 kilometers long. That may sound like a long hike, but once you get to the cave you'll realize it's so worth it.
