Hiking
It is an artificial cave at the exit of Villaconejos. The cave dwelling was built by a community of monks of the Order of Discalced Carmelites in 1734, according to the inscription on the entrance lintel, which also has a heraldic shield. The interior is a gallery with 19 arches and several vents; due to the type of construction, it could have been used as a wine cellar for the monks themselves.
