Location

From the track that descends along the bottom of the Troneda, you must pass by the avenc Tapat and after a left-hand bend it heads for the bed of the main torrent. About 35 metres before arriving you must climb up to the left and go up a little along the slope, and at a distance of about 20 metres from the track is the mouth of the pit, completely surrounded by kermes oaks.

Description

Morphology

A first drop of a little more than 1 metre connects by a short ramp with a second drop of almost 2 metres of vertical difference. At its bottom, two small conduits lead off from the floor, where the cavity ends at 5 metres of total depth.

History

Located in 1952 by members of the GES-CMB while they were searching for the avenc de Mas Traval or de la Troneda. It would not be until September 1999 that they returned and Elena Muntan carried out the exploration.
