Buttercup Creek Cave Preserve

If you're new to the area or have even lived here your entire life, this is a hidden gem I'm betting you've not yet seen.
It's part of a network of caves in the area and these trails interconnect at least 7 caves that I have found.
It's public property. So don't worry about trespassing. Signs stated the City of Cedar Park will be improving upon the trails in the near future.
If you're up for a hike or a ride through the woods check it out!

Buttercup Cave Preserve is one of the larger nature preserves in the area, with several cave openings (gated and often fenced-off.) There are a number of faded plaques that give information on each opening, though they need to be replaced.

Occasional benches are set up along the trails, and there is at least one decrepit old picnic table.

It has always been muddy on my visits, but the trails are rocky enough that it us not an inconvenience. One benefit of the wet ground is that it is easy to see the signs of wildlife, which appears to be abundant, even if I rarely see them in person.

I have not found any designated parking for this preserve, however there is nearby residential parking.

I love this cute little park. The winding trails are fun and the caves are pretty cool. Just don’t get lost!

We couldn't go in the caves but nice trail with a playground around the middle of the hike off a trail.

An undiscovered jewel in the midst of Cedar Park.

1.5 hour loop

Awesome

So interesting!!

We enjoyed a two mile walk with our two German Shepherds at this beautiful park. It was mostly empty, so we had our dogs off-leash much of the time. The trails are Rocky, so you cannot walk very fast.

In a neighborhood so can't use trails unless your from the area. However if you do go by make sure it hasn't rained recently or it will be muddy. About a 1 mile loop with smaller trails in between. Not very busy normally

Great place to go for a trail walk or run. Beautiful trails in Cedar Park and there are plenty of them. Natural flowers and wildlife are there too.

Was great. Nice and cool. Well till I got botched at for taking a picture. Lol

Real secluded, all caves are locked up though
