Molienda La Peña, located in the Chiviaza parish, combines archaeological heritage, rural landscapes, and local traditions. The farm features twelve large engraved rocks—including the well-known *Piedra Tacita* (Cup-mark Stone)—as well as native and medicinal plants that are part of the site's environment.

The visit offers the chance to view the petroglyphs, explore the surroundings with a local guide, and learn about traditional practices linked to the production of *guarapo* (sugarcane juice) and *aguardiente* (cane spirit)—an experience that integrates culture, nature, and daily life. The tour allows visitors to appreciate both archaeological remains and practices that remain part of the local memory and customs of Chiviaza in a single setting.
