Cueva Negra, Montanejos

The cave entrance measures 26 by 10 meters, leading to a vast chamber of 2,300 square meters and reaching a depth of 30 meters.

Archaeological excavations in 1934 revealed Neolithic artifacts, including sandstone pieces, flint tools, and pottery fragments without animal remains.

The black ceiling of the cave results from ancient human-made fires, indicating temporary settlements and occasional refuge for early inhabitants.

Located 800 meters from Montanejos village, visitors can reach the cave through La Bojera trail with a 700-meter uphill path.

This cave formation contains large stone blocks creating pseudo-galleries, making it one of the largest cave chambers in Valencia Community.
