Cova del Roser

Petita cova de 9 metres de recorregut a Les Valls d'Aguilar

Valls d'Aguilar, Les • Alt Urgell9m0

Small cave with a 9-metre passage in Les Valls d'Aguilar, with a gallery of an average width of one metre.

Characteristics

Location

On the road from Noves de Segre to Taús and before reaching Bellpui, we find a track on the left that leads to a house and a few metres further down reaches the river; the track continues on the other side of the river, following its course. About a hundred metres after having crossed the river we will take an ascending path on the right-hand side. After half an hour of climbing in zig-zag we will leave the path and cross a torrent to head towards some walls that lie to the south. First we will find the cova del Pi Gros, a little further east we find the cova del Pont and a little further east we find the cova del Roser about 10 metres below the cova de l'Escala, which is visible from the road and the river, serving as a reference for its location before starting the ascent.
