    No, sadly you can not reach the princess until you defeat Bowser. It would be interesting to have a secret way to get to the princess though.

    Can I beat Bowser without the cape in Super Mario World?
    Community Answer
    Of course! However, you can't fly. The cape is still helpful though, as you can stun the Mechakoopas before you pick them up. To sum it up, the cape helps you but you can still destroy Bowser without it.

    How do I get the Mechakoopas to Bowser in Super Mario World?
    Community Answer
    Jump on the Mechakoopas so that they're not running around and then hold 'Y' and run into them so that you pick them up, afterwards press up on the D-pad and let go of 'Y' try to hit Bowser not the shell that his is in otherwise the Mechakoopas just break, however if you hit Bowser he will lose a life. This takes a lot of practice so don't be concerned if you don't get it the first time.

    How do I find the secret exits in Super Mario World?
    Community Answer
    There are lots of secret exits and levels to find in Super Mario World, but a common way to find secrets is to equip the cape power up try flying to the top of the level. More often than not, you'll find hidden secrets like Dragon Coins, 1-up Mushrooms and sometimes secret exits. One example is in Donut Plains 1, where at the very end of the level, you can fly upward to find a series of pipes in the sky. This is where the secret key and keyhole are.
