Going up from the Sanctuary of Jaraba we take a detour to the left that will bring us to these rock paintings of the Benedí Rock that are seven thousand years old. On the limestone rock you can see painted animals such as deer, a woman or an archer. Apart from the paintings, we will have wonderful views of the canyon

The Roca Benedí Cave Paintings are located within the Barranco de la Hoz Seca, in Jaraba, Zaragoza. These paintings are one of the westernmost examples of Levantine rock art on the Iberian Peninsula, dating back more than 7,000 years.

The paintings depict a hunting scene featuring two human figures, a man and a woman, and two animals painted in black. This archaeological site is accessible via trails that allow visitors to enjoy the stunning scenery of the ravine while exploring these ancient works of art.
