Barbot Petit

Cova de 4 metres de recorregut a Sant Quirze Safaja

Sant Quirze Safaja • Moianès4m0

A 4-metre-long cave in Sant Quirze Safaja, intimately related to the Barbot Negre.

Characteristics

Location

From Riells del Fai we will follow the carrer de Vallderrós to the bridge that crosses the torrent de Llòbrega; once crossed, we will continue to the right along a track to the village water tank. Follow the path that leaves the water tank, always uphill. The second turn-off on the left. A little further up, a new turn-off on the left to go to the Barbot Petit and the Cova de Vallderrós. To reach the latter, a few metres before the Barbot Petit you must descend, aided by a fixed plastic rope, and then climb a little up to the rock shelter.

To go to the Barbot Negre you must go back to the last turn-off you took to the left and continue uphill in the direction of the dark-coloured travertines that lie above the path.
