Location

On the road from Sant Llorenç de Mongai to Camarasa, once past the Font del Gat, we find on the right some cultivated fields with olive trees. From the far end of these, a path sets off climbing up the mountain; the cavity is located halfway up, beneath a small cliff. Approximate coordinates, without much precision.

Morphology

A narrow entrance leads us into a single chamber 17x3 metres with a slight incline towards the S, the point at which the depth of -2 metres is reached. On the W side, we find two small openings that lead to the outside.
