Cave of los Muñecos

Descripción
Descripción larga

This Sanctuary of the Ibera era, along with another located also in Jaén, in the town of Castellar are very important and have provided the largest number of bronze exvotes, important pieces not only to know the work of this metal in the Iberian world, but to solve many other problems related to the faithful who approached the divinity in these places of worship, such as the type of religiosity, the forms of clothing, the jewels, weapons, the type of hair, etc.

From Collado de los Jardines more than 2,500 exvotes have come out, and from Castellar more than 2,000. The almost all of these objects are kept in the National Archaeological Museum of Madrid.

The exvotes (dolls) of this Shrine of the Collado de los Jardines are of the most varied, in them are represented faithful of all kinds: women, men, warriors, etc.
The latest research was based on the documentation of a historical population in the "Cerro del Castillo" located above the Sanctuary, with the consequent recording of materials and the documentation of 'work units' such as a Roman track, a wall and the environment of the solar that occupied the Iberian necropolis.

The Cueva de los Muñecos is located inside the Natural Park Despeñacolos, the municipal term of Santa Elena, within a ravine, built between colossal stone blocks, in which there are excavated several caves, the largest of which, about 50 meters deep, was probably the limit of the sacred enclosure. Within this cave today there is a water spring that probably should have existed already in ancient times. In the area there is today a Centre for the Interpretation of the Historical and Cultural Heritage of the Natural Park of Despeñacolos, as well as a path for public use that leads to the Sanctuary and a lookout in the so-called Cerro del Castillo.

Breve descripción

There is a place in St. Helena (Jaén) for all the neighbors known as La Cueva de los Muñecos, called for the number of votes (bronze figures) found in the area. It is the Iberian Sanctuary located on the Collado de los Jardines located on the A-6200 road that leaves from the A4 motorway in Despeñacolos to the town of Aldeaquemada.

Descripción
Descripción larga

The great presence of limestone and the karmic effects make our province abundant the caves and coats that served as a home for those who lived these lands thousands of years ago. The Cueva de la Graja is an example of this; this rocky coat located at the north end of the Aznaitín at 750 meters high houses rock art manifestations with an age of 2000 to 5000 years before our age. The cave can be visited by requesting it previously in the City of Jimena.

Breve descripción

At the north end of the Aznaitin massif, in the area known as "the Cimbra," is the Cueva de la Graja. It is really a 6-meter-deep coat by 6-wide, which in its highest part reaches 5 meters. In addition to offering wonderful views from its 750 meters of altitude, this coat houses rock art manifestations that were made between 2000 and 5000 years before our era. Made with pigments obtained through the mixture of iron oxide, clays and animal fats; the paintings represent rites and grazing work. Declared an Artistic Historical Monument in 1924, the cave can be visited on request in the City of Jimena.

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on
Id

Descripción
Descripción larga

While other castles can focus mainly on their medieval history, Cosmolarium offers a completely different experience for two reasons:

  1. It offers an experience focused on astronomy and the universe
  2. It values the incredible sky of the Sierra de Segura, Cazorla and the Villas, non-light pollution.

In short, its universe museum, planetary sessions, guided tours and night sky observation activities make it unique in the region.

Breve descripción

It is a centre for the interpretation of astronomy that consists of a digital planetarium, with a dome of 8 meters in diameter that shows enveloping audiovisual productions, complete exhibition rooms on the Universe, spaces for workshops and educational games, as well as a terrace for astronomical observations.

El Moralejo Farmhouse

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on
Id

Descripción
Descripción larga

To arrive there is only to follow the signs to the Natural Monument of the Quejigo del Master from Valdepeñas de Jaén, just 1 '5 km from a lane that descends to the right, continuing just over 2 km we arrive to an old ruined cortijo in the middle of a wide explanade.

The horizon is wide, although it is true that the mountains cut the celestial vault a little. We are facing a top-class place for those most demanding fans.
This observation point is located more than 1,100 meters in height and in the bottom of the valley with outstanding conditions of seeing and darkness.

Breve descripción

We are at one of the best points in the entire Starlight Reserve in the South Sierra de Jaén. Note: the use of 4x4 vehicle is necessary to access this point, however it is worth it because it is reached at the bottom of a large valley surrounded by lomas and mountains that hide the few remains of light pollution. From this point on the darkness and purity of heaven is exquisite.

El Chorro Cliffs

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on
Id
912498
Descripción
Descripción larga

Two are the points from which you get a good view of the Chorro:

  • In front of the forest house comes a path that takes you to a lookout with a stone wall from which to serene observe the show that opens before your eyes. The white spots that are seen on the walls of this mole accuse the presence of vultures' nests, for they are only the stained of their excrements by being dragged through the waters.
  • Following the track that has brought us to the Chorro and a few meters away you have to go down a path that comes to the right to the very abyss through a cast of sharp stones. You're on top of an impressive rosejo of vertical walls. With great caution you can look and get over the heights, views and flight of the many birds that live or go by in their constant search for food.

We suggest...

  • Take binoculars to see the caves where the birds nest.
  • Make use of the wooden observatory from where you will pass unnoticed for the birds that will fly and pose around you without complexes. At the entrance there is an information panel with the most common birds in the area. A good time to learn to identify them.

In the Iruela, from the City Hall square, the road rises towards the Riogazas hotel. It is known as the Chorro road. 12 km from the Iruela is the Chorro forest house on the left bank of the forest track.

Breve descripción

This abrupt glow, located just a few meters from the road, is an ideal place to observe carrion birds such as the leonate vulture or the aloche. The impressive cut of limestone forms deep cracks used by numerous birds to nesting. The royal vicar, the common cernicalo and even the pilgrim hawk are constantly flying over the ravine of the Chorro stream, which is strolling in a 70-meter waterfall and which welcomes the melting waters of the Giillo.

Cornicabrales

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on
Id

Descripción
Descripción larga

Once we get to Central, we're already in the middle of the cornicabral. A mile earlier, from the Nidillo Strike, we will be accompanied by the cornicabra to our right on a very stony and pending slope. At the end of the route, in front of the bridge that crosses the Borosa River to access the central one, on the hillside that extends to our left after crossing the bridge, we will observe large trees, which look like oak trees, but if you look at us it will surprise us that they are large cornicabra. In the fall we are presented with a multitude of warm colors ranging from orange to dark red.

The cornicabral that we see is associated with little vegetation in its lowland, this is because the presence of cattle (wild or domestic ungulates) benefits the cornicabra, its outbreaks and spills of seed are very toxic and not appetizing to the cattle, so it is not easy to see other species accompanying the cornicabral, and more in areas frequented by the cattle. However, they are usually seen in oak (Quercus ilex ballota), arces de Montpelier (Acer mosnpessulanum), agracejos (Phillyrea latifolia), sabinas (Juniperus phoenicea), lentisco (Pistacia lenticus), rosemos (Rosmarinus officinalis), torvizcos (Daphne gnidium), esamujos (Rosa ssp.) and among herbaceas we highlight the peony or rose of mountain (Paeonia broteroi), as well as in the gradivos (Rachos), as in the gradivázos, as in the gradivánas in the gracos (Rachos, as in the gradius, as in the gradivás, as in the gradivázos, as in the gracos (Rachos), as in the gradius, as in the gradivávás, as in the gradius in the gracas in the gracos, as in the (Poa bulbosa, Agrostis ssp., Cynosurus echinatus, Aegilops geniculata, Arrhenatherum elatinus, etc.).

The name of the cornicabra is due to the protuberances in the form of goat horn so characteristic in leaves and stems, which are gills produced by the bite of an insect, which uses them as food for its larvae.

We suggest:

  • The cornicabral are present in others in many mountains and more or less stony slopes of the Park, as in this type of environment it is where the cornicabra (Pistacia terebinthus) finds its habitat. Extensive cornicabral can be seen on the slopes of the Zumeta River, near the Ticiano Sale, in the gutters of Peña Corba (Las Villas), on the slopes of the Yelmo Chico, in the Cerrada del Utrero, etc.

Route of the Borosa, from the place known as La Central. To reach the cornicabral we must remount the Borosa River along the track that passes to its vera, and that ends up in a hydroelectric power plant. We take it on the farm of Borosa, a well-known place. We have 8 km ahead of us, but they don't have much slope and can be done easily, and we go all the way through the Borosa River, which is one of the most spectacular and popular routes of the Park.

Breve descripción

Pilate boat, Borosa River

This cornicabral is extended by the Pilate Boat, at the head of the Borosa River, where there are the largest copies of those in the Park.

When enjoying plant formations, preference is often given to those that are starring in trees, but in these saws many are dominated by shrubs. This is the case with the cornicabral, of great ecological and landscape importance, especially in the autumn, when they become almost red.
