Tiny 4 m deep pit in Sant Llorenç del Munt, with a rounded entrance half a metre in diameter.

Characteristics

Location

At the first bend shortly after km. 14 of the road from Castellar del Vallès to Sant Llorenç Savall, the track leading to the Dalmau farmhouse branches off to the left, following the Riera Seca. Well before arriving there is a junction and one must take the right-hand track leading to the Daví farmhouse. Shortly after the first bend to the left, about 200 metres before reaching the Pi de les Quatre Besses and on the right-hand side of the path, is the pit.
