Cumaca Cave

Located in the eastern area of the Northern Range, the Cumaca Cave hike is filled with exciting activities which are quite recreational and educational as well. The hike is moderately challenging with a rating of “5” due to the constant gentle uphill and the distance to complete which should take the average hiker about 2.5 hours one way. The cave itself is made by a river that flows throughout its length from which hypogean fishes also known as the semi-blind catfish are residents. The Cumaca Cave is also home to the Guacharos-Oil Birds which are the only nocturnal fruit eating birds in the world. On entrance to the cave you will be greeted by the unique cries of the Oil Birds which will intensify as you get engulfed by the cave and inevitably by the Oil Birds themselves. The cave has many chambers that can be explored all of which will leave you thrilled.
