Small pit 6 m deep below la Mata, in the Serra de l'Obac.

Mura • Bages 10m 6m

Small pit 6 m deep below la Mata, in the Serra de l'Obac.

Characteristics

Location

Driving along the road from Terrassa to Mura, shortly before km 13 there is a bend to the right where the torrent de l'Hort is crossed. Here begins a wide track (the old path to la Mata), which must be followed to a pronounced bend to the left where the climb begins. At this bend, on the left, an old path must be found and followed for a couple of minutes, then turn towards the NW until reaching the large fallen pine and the pit.

If you prefer to leave the car at the Coll d'Estenalles, the same itinerary must be followed but in reverse, from the house of la Mata.

Morphology

A small entrance (1 by 0.5 m) allows us to descend through a narrow 4-metre shaft to a chamber 3 by 3.5 metres with a slight slope and a low ceiling that only allows standing upright at some point.

History

Discovered in the spring of 1982 by members of the GES – CMT and the SIS – CET, while searching for a series of cavities of which they had news (not this one) in the area of the Canal de l'Hort.
