Description
Morphology
An entrance 3 metres high by 2 metres wide gives access to a chamber, which narrows as we advance until it becomes impenetrable at 6 metres of passage. On the right side of the chamber, and after overcoming a rise of 2.5 metres in height, a crawlway opens that connects with a gallery of reduced section that connects with the exterior on the wall of the cliff.
History
Although it appears to have been known since ancient times, the first exploration of which we have record was carried out by the SIEP of the CE Poblet on 28 May 1978.
