There are many places to explore in the caves of Spelunky, each filled with unique terrain, monsters, traps and Level Feelings.

There are four main areas that the Spelunker must navigate to reach Olmec, in addition to a bonus area where the Spelunker can face the game's final boss.

There are also several bonus levels which offer powerful items as their prize if the Spelunker can survive them.

Area 1: The Mines

The Mines

The Mines are the first of the four main areas.

The Jungle is the second of the four main areas, comprising levels from 2-1 to 2-4.

Area 3: The Ice Caves

Ice caves
"Icy rocks suspended over a bottomless abyss."

It is a frosty cavern that is far more open than other areas in the game, and falling off the slippery platforms will be fatal.
It is home to many Yetis and Mammoths, as well as strange alien invaders.

Beware, as this area is tricky. Its monsters and the level design is different in relation to others. 

Area 4: The Temple

Temple
"These ruins have probably been here for thousands of years. Who built them?"

The Temple is the last of the four main areas, comprising levels 4-1 to 4-4.
Level 4-4 is Olmec's Lair, where the Spelunker fights against it to get the Giant Idol, a high valued treasure.

Area 5: Hell

Hell
"The underworld. Sheol. Hades. One thing's for certain: it's HOT down here!"

Hell is a bonus area that can only be accessed by acquiring the Book of the Dead and the four treasures from the previous areas (Mines, The Jungle, The Ice Caves and The Temple).
