From the Village of Tahsis Website:

Upana Caves

Located about 15 kilometres from Gold River on the way to Tahsis, Upana Forest Service Recreation Site contains about 300 metres of passages with many entrances. These caves were formed by a creek that pours into a deep canyon-like sinkhole in one area and emerges from a beautiful spacious marble entrance farther downhill.

Upana Caves contain scenic, self-guided trails that lead to several entrances. While the passages are maze-like and convoluted, you are never far from daylight. On your way to Tahsis, look for the signage on the right just before Bull Lake summit, the highest pass on the road, to locate these caves.
