Info
Of the caves in the council of Morcín, the Abrigo de Entrefoces is perhaps the most striking. This cave preserves a panel with the representation of two hinds and a horse, engraved in the Magdalenian period.
To the north of the shelter, the narrow AS231 road runs between two almost vertical limestone walls, very close to the river Riosa. To the east, the mountain range of the Manteca crag borders and dominates the view, to the south is the meadow of La Foz, and if we continue to the west, the watercourses of the Otura stream open up, the main area of agricultural use in this area.
It can be reached by the AS231 road, Peñamiel to La Foz.
