    Hiking

    The water from the Sierra de las Nieves flows into this cave, forming the Rio Grande.

    Hiking

    The Nacimiento consists of a spring, a small lake and a water reservoir for local water supply.
    The water comes directly from the mountain and is absolutely clean, but also very cold. Anyone who can stand cold water can swim here or even with their legs into the water.
    The Nacimiento is very quiet, a magical place. There is also a cave in which cave divers have explored.
    It is worth to browse a bit in the area, to look at the cave and to enjoy the beautiful nature.

    This cave is on private land. How could this be sold to a private individual!!? Only option seems to climb the stupid gate at the end of the bridge.
