Characteristics

Location

On the Turó de la Miloquera, Marçà. From the S side, from the church square, we will follow carrer de la Bassa and take the camí del Castell; at the end of this we will find the Parc de les Olors de la Miloquera and the Centre d'interpretació de la tortuga mediterrània. From the car park of these we will head towards the SW; once we have reached the summit of the Turó de la Miloquera, we will find the cavity 9 metres from it in an E direction. The entrance is small, it opens between blocks and is hidden by vegetation. Approximate coordinates.

Description

Morphology

It is a small cavity with 10 metres of passage full of large unstable blocks, among which an impracticable shaft opens.

Progression

Among the large unstable blocks an impracticable shaft opens through which a strong air current comes out.

History

We do not know who the first explorers were, but the first documented mention of which we have a reference is that of the Espeleo Club de Gràcia, who explored and surveyed it in 1979.
