Cave of El Reguerillo, Prehistoric cave in Patones, Spain.

The cave system extends over 8900 meters with multiple galleries, tubes, and chambers distributed across different levels reaching 80 meters in depth.

The cave received monument status in 1944 after researchers discovered evidence of human presence through various rock engravings dating from prehistoric periods.

Research teams have documented numerous geometric patterns and reticular designs on the cave walls, contributing to understanding prehistoric art in central Spain.

The cave requires professional speleological equipment and expertise to navigate through narrow passages, muddy sections, and potentially slippery areas.

Three separate entrances at different elevations allow speleologists to create various exploration routes through sections named Gran Via, Tobogan, and Gran Sala.
