Description
Morphology
It is a large rock shelter, whose front is closed by a stone wall. The interior is accessed through the left-hand part of the wall; through the right-hand part of it there is another access, but the vegetation prevents passage. Once inside the shelter we find a large block that occupies a good part of the space. Passing along the left-hand part of the block, at the end of it we find a small and wide chamber but with a low ceiling (1 metre on average).
Speleothems
In the chamber we find some stalagmitic columns; also on the right-hand part of the chamber a stalagmitic barrier has formed that prevents access to a space that can be seen behind. The whole formation is in a fairly advanced state of decalcification.
