Mammoth Cave is one of the most unique national parks I've been to. Most place you get hills and trees and wildlife, and that is all awesome. But with Mammoth cave you get one the largest cave systems in the world. There are a bunch of different tours that you can go on to get a sense of the enormity of the cave, but my personal favorite is the Wild Cave Tour. Two guides take you through the "back alleys" of the cave. You end up crawling and sliding and climbing for around 6 hours in some very dark, very tight areas. I wouldn't recommend it for anyone who is in anyway claustrophobic and not in at least decent shape, but it is definitely a lot of fun.
