Crystal Cave is located in the western part of Wisconsin, in the beautiful hills and bluffs near the Mississippi River. On a regional map, first find Saint Paul, MN, then look about 45 miles east along Interstate 94. Look south about 6 miles for the village of Spring Valley. The cave is on State Highway 29, midway between River Falls and Menomonie.
From Eau Claire, take I-94 west to the Spring Valley exit, (Exit 28), follow signs to SV and stay on HWY 29 about a mile west of the village of SV.
From Red Wing, follow HWY 63 north through Ellsworth. One mile past Martell, look for signs at the HWY 29 east intersection.
