周辺の洞窟・トップ5

Cantera Cueva de Herrera was breathtakingly beautiful! An incredible place worthy of admiration! But!!! This place has turned into a dumping ground for construction waste (and not just construction waste). Spaniards! This is your home! How can you treat such a gift of nature like this????

The museum is located in the historic center of the town of Gáldar. Its mission is to protect the historical sites there, to conduct scientific research and to communicate the findings to the general public. The institution is named after the Cueva Pintada (painted cave), which was probably created in the 7th century AD by the island's original inhabitants, the Canarios. This cave was forgotten and buried after the conquest of the Canary Islands in the 15th century. It was only rediscovered in the second half of the 19th century. Its cultural and historical significance was already recognized by foreign experts at that time. It was not until the 1970s that a detailed scientific study of the cave began. After the site was declared a Bien de Interés Cultural in 1972, it was protected against environmental influences, which caused damage, among other things, from the irrigation of the surrounding fields. In 1982, access to the cave was closed to the public and in 1987 excavations began in the surrounding area. They revealed that the cave was not an isolated object, but part of a prehistoric settlement with more than 50 houses and other caves. To protect the site, construction began on a new type of museum. An area of 5700 m² was covered. Visitors now have the opportunity to walk through and view the archaeological site on footbridges. Reconstructed aboriginal dwellings were set up and exhibition, information and laboratory rooms were created. The new museum was opened in 2006. It displays objects found on site in separate exhibition rooms, such as pintaderas, statuettes, everyday objects and jewelry made of various materials.

The museum is more than just the painted cave. it is an archaeological park with real excavation sites where you can imagine what the oldest city in Gran Canaria looked like in indigenous times.

This is an example of the many caves that the ravine has. In the past they were used to preserve food or as shelter during bad weather during work days.

beautiful circuit through the laurel trees

Pay attention to 2 stairs and 1 level crossing. Some danger if you don't go with attention and care.

Today, November 24, 2024, and after 2 years after the fall, I know that I was reborn that day.. because it could have been worse. 🙏🙏🙏 Today I have screws and plates in my foot 👣 But if I had known the danger Of that place I would never have come to this place I still haven't gotten over it and I've had 3 operations And I'm still not well.. To get to this place you go around a cliff where the ground is loose and it's easy to fall off the cliff.. Then inside the cave it's dark and there's a risk of falling To the floor below.. ⬇️ why aren't there protection fences or anything marked In one of those holes is where I fell 4 meters high and broke my leg.. There's also no mobile coverage 📱 to ask for help!.. So I ask Everyone who wants to go... think about it before going,... because life is the best thing we have, and we only have it once and it is better not to risk it... There are many wonderful places to go without risk!

In this particular place, right where the path ends, it is quite dangerous because of the stones when going down, and you can run the risk of slipping and falling into the cliff of the sea 🌊.. There is a cave at the bottom, which connects with the sea inside, going up some ruined stairs inside the cave... But very important note! 🙏 Very dangerous🛑 Because there is a part inside the cave that is not walled off and this area looks like a shadow of the cave But nothing too far from reality.. It is a 4-meter high drop and from which you will not see what is there, and you run the risk of falling! You need a flashlight 🔦 for this site Yes or yes. I repeat. Extremely dangerous since there is no telephone coverage. But I do not recommend this place I fell into a hole 🕳️ in the cave that is not walled or 🚧signposted and this area is dark I fell from 4 M high right here And I broke my leg..And I thank God 🙏that I was reborn that day..
