Description
Morphology
It is the largest of the three, it has a 10X10-metre floor plan, with a height that varies between 1,50 and 2 metres, making a slight slope towards the outside.
Progression
To reach it, we will descend down the rock itself, in an E direction, beside the holm oaks and boxwoods. Further down, we will soon find a small abandoned path. We will find a crossroads of trails; we will follow the left one, descending the cliff itself with great caution. The path turns to the left, levelling out along a small ledge. Below the same wall, on the left, we will see shelter no. 2. Following the ledge a few more metres, we will reach shelter no. 3.
History
The only data we know about the cavity are those provided by Salvador Codina, who explored it in 2003.
