A fantastic site for the observation and tracking of traces and traces of birds, small carnivorous mammals, ungulate herbivores, reptiles, etc.
Malamoneda is a Rupestrian Ensemble of great historical and cultural value, a legacy of the passage of the different cultures and peoples that inhabited it.
