Small cave in l'Ordal, Gelida, 2 metres long with a small 3.70-metre-deep shaft.

Characteristics

Location

From the centre of Ordal (Subirats), we will access by track to Montcau, on the boundary of the municipalities of Subirats and Gelida; the track continues downhill in an E direction and runs along a flat stretch before climbing towards the collet de Montcau. After having covered about 725 metres from Montcau and located on the flat stretch of the track, at the coordinates (WGS84 UTM 31 405701-4585196), we will follow the ridge in a N direction for about 400 metres, where we will find the cavity.
