Description
Morphology
Access to the cavity is made right beside the road gutter through a descending entrance that shortly connects with a small chimney; after passing some narrowness, the gallery connects with a low-roofed chamber with blocks on the floor.
Progression
We must look for the continuation to the north of the chamber, where a narrow descending squeeze will reach the maximum depth of the cavity.
History
Referenced by J. Virella in 1978 in Miscel.lania Penedesenca.
In July 2018 Jordi Navarro and Montse Mañosa (Centre Excursionista Castellar) visited it and made the survey.
