El Macio del Jobal cave is located away from Holguin quite high up in the mountains. The way to this cave is only possible by off-road vehicles. Then travel on horseback for another 2-3 kilometers through the jungle. This gem at the entrance is not transparent at all. But when you pass to the depth of 18 meters a rift opens up. Further on, the absolutely mesmerizing part of the cave begins. Billions of snow-white stalactites and stalagmites literally cling to all surfaces.
The cave has been explored us to 35 meters. Using photogrammetry and satellite marker technology, the structure of the cave was reconstructed. The lines are indicated in gold color for the present. Nevertheless, there is still a lot of work to be done. Not all areas of the cave could be reconstructed this time. Also the line continues from 35 meters and goes deeper. What’s in there? It’s not known. A new round of research awaits us.
