Description

Everything You Need to Know

In the charming town of Vall d’Uixó lies a natural wonder: the longest navigable underground river in Europe, stretching over 3,000 meters. This is where you’ll find the Coves de Sant Josep, natural caves of unique beauty with a rich history to tell.

These caves, which feature the longest underground route in Castellón, are perfectly preserved. Thanks to the interior lighting, you’ll be able to admire their rock formations and varied colors. You will see ceilings covered in stalactites, wide galleries, and spaces known as “the Cathedral” or the “Bat Cave.” You’ll also marvel at prehistoric cave paintings, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
