You would never expect to find this beauty in the Hill Country. Get John Ahrns to be your guide. He knows EVERYTHING about this place. Excellent learning opportunity for kids and adults. New nature center is awsome. You'll appreciate the coolness in the cave. Wear good hiking shoes for the descent into the grotto. Bring your camera! more
