Description
Morphology
The cavity opens in an overhanging wall. On the S side a passage 9 metres long opens, while on the N side there is another passage that to access it requires a 6-metre-long traverse. Once the traverse has been made, one accesses a passage that soon descends in a ramp for a couple of metres; here on the ceiling we find a passage that rises 4 metres and ends, while the main gallery ends about five metres further on. The length of this passage is 16.9 metres. The total length of the cavity is 32.3 metres, while the vertical drop is +10 metres.
Progression
To access the passage on the N side, a 6-metre-long traverse must be made.
History
Explored in June 2013 by the Espeleodijous group, who published it on the blog 'espeleobloc.com'; with the passage of time and due to the inactivity of this blog, the images of this article disappeared, the Espeleodijous recovered the article and on 14-3-2022 included it on the website 'espeleodijous.cat'.
Nil Hosta Ferrer and Tanit Sanmartin, unaware of the data previously cited, in January 2026 relocated the cavity while carrying out cataloguing work and named it cova del Flanqueig.
