    Tips

    A good place for a short break. At the entrance to the cave there is a small plaque commemorating Mariquita la Posá. A young woman who married the old hermit so that he could make a healing elixir against the plague that was spreading. But the old hermit broke his promise and did not distribute the potion to the villagers. He was afraid that Mariquita la Posá would turn away from him once everyone was healthy. So the young woman stole the bottle with the elixir while he was sleeping and distributed it around the village. Then she wanted to get rid of the old grump and gave him a nasty potion. But something went wrong and she got some of it herself. Neither of them has been seen since then. But all the villagers who are still alive have apparently recovered.
