Lluçà • Lluçanès 6m

Small rock shelter in Lluçà, in the Lluçanès, 22 m long, 6 m deep and 3 m high, with a deposit of limestone tufa.

Characteristics

Location

We will set out from the village of Lluçà along the BV-4341 road; when we reach kilometre point 13.3, we will turn off onto a forest track that leaves on our right. We will soon reach the farmhouse of la Font and continue until we come to a livestock farm. Here we will leave the car to continue on foot, without a path, and go down to the torrent where we will find the rock shelter, right in the same streambed, beneath a small cascade.

Description

Morphology

The cavity is 22 m long by 6 m deep and 3 m high.

Speleothems

Above the rock shelter the waters of the stream plunge down, having formed a deposit of limestone tufa about 3 m long by 2 m high.

Progression

From kilometre point 13.3 on the BV-4341 road, a forest track on the right leads to the farmhouse of la Font and then to a livestock farm, where the car is left. One continues on foot, without a path, going down to the torrent as far as the rock shelter, situated in the same streambed, beneath a small cascade.
