These caves, carved out of the rock, were restored in the 1950s by the Brotherhood of Jesus, which makes them available for walkers and spiritual retreats. Previously it is said that they were used by the bandit "Cucaracha" who frequented this area and hid in the cave where the hermitage is today.

Hiking

We are at the top of San Caprasio, near the towns of Farlete and Alcubierre. These excavations are a rock hermitage made up of several caves that had been a refuge for shepherds and also bandits like Cuchara in the past. The main cave is that of Health where we can find a chapel

Mountain biking

Surprising place for the hermitage carved into the rock. Next door is a shelter for emergency overnight stays. Very good views from the hermitage itself and if you go to the top it is a first-rate viewpoint of the area.
