What a hidden gem!!! Worth the lovely country drive. The tour guide and the tour were fabulous! I’ve lived here for 18 years and I learned more about Texas in the 2 hours on this tour than in my last 18 years. Beautiful. Serene. Peaceful. Calm. Loved it.

Westcave Outdoor in Austin, TX is a breathtaking nature preserve. The guided tour will take you through an arid savannah, into a lush canyon, and to a stunning waterfall. The tour guide is very knowledgeable and friendly. It’s a serene escape into nature’s beauty. Highly recommended for outdoor enthusiasts.

We really enjoyed the cave and waterfall. The hike back in 100 degree weather was a beating but we'll worth it. We learned so much about the vegetation, wildlife (snakes 👀), and trees. It's a great learning opportunity.

Booked a 9:00 a.m. tour. Our guide was Amanda and she was great! She gave us a lot of details about the area and the flora and fauna. We hiked down some natural steps to the grotto and the cave. Amanda gave us plenty of time for photos. Took about an hour and 40 minutes. There were about 25 people total in the group. It was pretty hot by the time we got back, so if you are visiting in the summer, I recommend an early tour. There are restrooms on the left side of the parking lot. When you get there you need to go into the main building and check in at the desk. The main building has a lot of interesting information and photos. It was a beautiful hike and I definitely recommend it.
