Austin Cave Festival Cave Tours

Join experts from City of Austin Watershed Protection and Wildlands for tours of LaCrosse Cave and Wildflower Cave to explore the underground world and learn what critters live there, how water enters the cave and travels through the Edwards Aquifer, and how actions in the recharge zone affect water quality at Barton Springs. Wear closed-toe shoes and clothes you can get muddy. Helmets, headlamps, and additional cave gear will be provided. Please read the descriptions below and register in advance for the cave and a specific time. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Tours are 30-45 minutes each.

La Crosse Cave (for ages 4+) has a staircase that provides access to the cave. Most of the cave can be walked through. Some stooping is required, but crawling is minimal. There are parts of the cave that may also be explored by crawling.

 

Wildflower Cave (for ages 8+) requires participants to crawl on hands and knees. This cave has a low ceiling; participants will mainly be sitting or crawling.
