The La Cova Negra municipal natural area is located in the municipality of Játiva, province of Valencia. In the Cova Negra is the Middle Paleolithic site in which remains of Homo Neanderthal have appeared. This natural area is located in the narrow valley formed by the Albaida River, as it crosses the reliefs of the Sierra Grossa, at the exit of the so-called Estret de les Aigües. In the widest meander formed by the Albaida River, at the height of Pico del Paller, you can see the Cova Negra, named for the blackish appearance of its walls.

I would suggest this being a good place to plan and start your hikes from. Easy access to the river and points of interest.

One of the ways to cross the river itself. I tried several others in the vicinity which were not suitable as the river flow to high

La Cova Negra is a cavity that is located in a gorge called the Strait of Waters. Its black color is mainly due to the smoke from the bonfires made by its former inhabitants, the Neanderthals who occupied it for a few months of the year. An important amount of flint tools and other archaeological remains have been found here.

Located next to the Guarner mill, a hydraulic mill to grind wheat and obtain flour. The necessary energy was obtained by partially diverting part of the river bed through a channel, the force of which activated the operation of the mill's gears.

La Cova Negra is an important archaeological site, located in the widest meander of the Albaida river. It was home to Neanderthal man in the Paleolithic. The cave gets its name from the dark color of the walls. Human remains and paintings have been found inside.

La Cova Negra is an important archaeological site, located in the widest meander of the Albaida river. It was home to Neanderthal man in the Paleolithic. The cave gets its name from the dark color of the walls. Human remains and paintings have been found inside. It is a space of fundamental importance for understanding the culture of the Mosterian and the reality of the Neanderthals. The Almodí Museum exhibits an exact reproduction of a parietal bone from the period, discovered in the cave.

Cave within the natural area of the same name with great historical and landscape value. It is a very nice place with trails that run along the Albaida River. You can get to the foot of the cave.
