Hiking
La Cava is a 12-hectare multiphase archaeological site that was first occupied 4,000 years ago, during the Bronze Age (between 2,500 and 1,000 BC). It is located on top of a hill whose western front is almost inaccessible, with the Sierra de Altomira in the background.

Hiking
If you go by car and do not want to complete the entire hiking route, it is better to access it from the Garcinarro-Buendia road from the access to the recreational area and car park. It can be climbed by a steep access with railings (parking) or from a small path (recreational area).

Running
It is one of the oldest and most important deposits in the region. What you will see on your tour will fascinate you, especially when you realize that people lived there in the Bronze Age, more than 4000 years ago!
