Itinerary

Located in the municipality of Ejulve, the Cueva del Recuenco is an impressive cave that constitutes a unique endokarst system in the Teruel Iberian system. Located on a calcareous outcrop on the northern slopes of Mount Majalinos, this cave occupies an area of 0.06 hectares and offers an unforgettable experience for lovers of nature and adventure.

Ejulve is part of the Maestrazgo Geopark, along with other municipalities in the Andorra-Sierra de Arcos region, and the Cueva del Recuenco is one of its most notable natural treasures. Declared a Site of Community Interest (SCI) within the Natura 2000 Network, this cave is home to important colonies of bats, such as the Mediterranean horseshoe bat, the great horseshoe bat and the little horseshoe bat. In addition, it is recognized as a Point of Geological Interest by the Government of Aragon.

Located in the Quiñonería area, on the northern slope of Mount Majalinos, at an altitude of 1,269 meters and about 4 kilometers from the town center of Ejulve, the Cueva del Recuenco impresses with its slope of 57 meters and its length of 1,085 meters. With a labyrinthine character, this cave offers a unique experience, with large rooms that contrast with narrow passages that are difficult to navigate.
Aunque la primera referencia espeleológica data de 1963, la Cueva del Recuenco sigue fascinando a los aventureros con su belleza natural y su historia geológica.
