Grutas de San Cristóbal

This large cave is nothing special but is an interesting short outing that lies about 30-minutes from the town. Illuminated with natural light and with a footpath running its full length, it is not a hard spot to visit alone but child guides can guide you in for a few pesos and point out several rock formations that look like recognizable figures, including tortoises and the former rebel Marcos.
