A cliffside cave called Barton Creek Cave No. 2 is visible to the naked eyes from a far distance from Barton Creek in Barton Creek Preserve. This cave is just upstream from Barton Creek Cave No. 1 on Urban Assault Wall, just 80 feet above creek level. The crawlway inside this cave is about 75 feet long in diameter.

Now the rock formation of this cave is native limestone. Many caves in Central Texas have a rock formation of native limestone.
The high distance above the ground makes accessibility difficult for many people. Even cavers have a hard time climbing to get into Barton Creek Cave No. 2. One you reach the outside of this cave, you will be able to see a beautiful view of Barton Creek and Gus Fruh Park itself. The view from looking outside this cave is similar to an aerial view.
