TOUR DESCRIPTION
On this half-day excursion you will get to know El Soplao Cave. This cave is located in the Arnero mountain range and is considered one of the great geological wonders of the world due to the quality and quantity of its geological formations called speolothems.
The visit will consist of making a guided circuit of 1 km on foot through different galleries of the cave which we will access with a little train. The walking tour is a very easy and an accessible route for everyone, even for wheelchairs.
This experience will last 1 hour. You will be surprised by the abundant formations of stalactites, stalagmites and speleothems scattered throughout the cave.
After visiting this wonder, we will continue our excursion through the endearing landscapes that this part of Cantabria offers us until we reach the Pechón viewpoint. From here you will enjoy incredible views over the Cantabrian Sea and the estuary of the Tina Menor estuary.
After this short stop to enjoy the views, we will resume our way back.
