Description

Discover the Canelobre Cave, the largest cave in Spain open to the public, on a guided tour . Explore the cave's bizarre and amazing shapes created by water and time, and learn about its history. Meet your guide and travel to the cave, located at an altitude of over 1,000 meters above sea level and 700 meters above the surrounding terrain. Admire the cave's height of about 70 meters, filled with bizarre and amazing shapes created by water and time, because the cave is about 7 million years old. See forms that resemble the architecture of Gothic cathedrals and especially Gaudi's architecture. Learn about the cave's history, including how it was used as a hiding place during the Spanish Civil War. Hear how the rebels made a new, more convenient entrance to the cave in addition to the existing natural one. Unfortunately, as a result of these works, many unique stalactites and stalagmites collapsed, but the preserved ones are simply amazing. Feel the cave's constant temperature of 18 degrees Celsius and humidity of 95 to 100%. Explore the cave's upper platform, where concerts, including rock concerts, sometimes take place.
