Location

From the village of the Torre de Fontaubella we will head along the track that passes by the Rentadors and follows the riera de Fontaubella in a SW direction. After about 700 metres, we will have to leave the car to go to the left along the PR C53 path towards the coll d'Eudalda, to later branch off in the direction of the font de Fontaubella. After about ten minutes we find without difficulty, on the left-hand side, the small cavity.

Description

Morphology

An opening 1.50 metres wide by 1 high introduces us into the middle of a single gallery, parallel to the cliff. If we go to the right, at 4 metres we find a narrow section, which does not make continuation feasible without a desobstruction. To the left we find 4 m more of gallery.
