about Westcave Preserve:

Adjacent to the Pedernales River, Westcave Preserve offers natural science and other educational programs for children and adults. The site includes grasslands, meadows, a 40-foot waterfall, caves, and other scenic wonders.

The preserve's Environmental Learning Center features a solar observatory, classroom spaces, and ecology exhibits.

Admission to the learning center is free, but hikes to the canyon trail are by guided tour only. Weekdays are by appointment only for groups and school children; weekend tours are at set times.
