Twelve thousand years ago, the last hunter-gatherers who inhabited the Cantabrian Cornice used charcoal to sketch inside a small chamber. They depicted the final cold-climate animals to live in this region before their extinction, such as reindeer and a bison, alongside ibexes and horses. As they journey through the interior, visitors will be amazed by the cave’s true geological treasure: spectacular limestone formations including columns, colorful flowstones, disks, and delicate stalactites and stalagmites that lend an air of fragility to several of its chambers.
