More information on Cueva del Gato (La)
This enormous cave, very interesting from the archaeological and speleological point of view, is about 120-140 kilometers from Málaga and located within the Benaoján municipal area. It is interesting because it was occupied by prehistoric men, during the Neolithic period and during the Bronze Age, and also because getting in it and walking inside it turns out to be quite difficult, particularly at the times of the year during which water suddenly spouts in the cave. It is almost 4,5 kilometers long and archaeologists have found a lot of prehistorical remains such as axes, tools made from polished bones, figurines showing idols and red ocher pottery throughout. It would not be advisable to enter the cave if you are not an experienced spelunker. Official permission is required for entry. To get there: You should take the Ronda road toward Sevilla (A-473) and then the road to Benaoján, which will take you to the Venta La Cueva del Gato, a restaurant. You should park your car there, walk toward the cave and you will find it in about 10 minutes.
