Description
Morphology
The mouth is very low, 30 centimetres above the water, but with a depth of 2 metres and half a metre wide, through which one enters a chamber of 4 x 2.5 metres where the ceiling rises slightly to 1 metre. To the E a gallery of 10 metres extends.
Hydrology
The access to the gallery of 10 metres that extends to the E is totally submerged, but with two very small air chambers that allow one to breathe a little.
History
The only data we know are those provided by members of the SIS – CE Terrassa who explored and surveyed it in August 1987.
