In the Area

Ubib Grotto – (Prehistoric Rock Paintings)

This remarkable archaeological site is called Ubib Grotto, named after the farm on which it is located.

The pre-historic paintings in this cave are estimated as more than 2,000 years old, but no oral or written history goes that far back that tells us about their purpose.

Explore the paintings on the wall, and you can journey back in time and imagine for yourself what may have happened in this grotto high up in the mountains.
