Description
Morphology
The lower entrance is in the form of a pit with a diameter of less than one metre and leads to a vertical drop of -15 metres, which has some boulders wedged in its walls; the base measures 3X20 metres. The upper entrance, in the form of a window, leads to a vertical drop of 8 metres, which places us in a gallery running E-W, completely filled with boulders, and with a pit at each end of it; the pit on the W side is impassable, while the one on the E side connects with one end of the lower cavity.
History
From the few data we have, we deduce that it was explored by speleologists, probably from Reus in 1973.
