Cova dels Prats

Cova de 15 metres de recorregut a la Roca de Senyús (Coll de Nargó)

Coll de Nargó • Alt Urgell15m2m

A 15-metre-long cave at the Roca de Senyús, with a single 15X8X10-metre chamber and beautiful ice formations.

Characteristics

Location

At the Roca de Senyús, a few metres from the Pas del Cabrit.

The most practical access is to follow the track that leads from the coll de Llívia towards the Boumort, when it crosses the barranc dels Cóms de Carreu, at a very tight left-hand bend, we will leave the vehicle and follow the track (closed to vehicles) that climbs parallel to the ravine until reaching a metal water tank. From here we will climb up to the Pla de Calama, at the end of which is the Roca de Senyús.

Coordinates without much precision and which would need to be reviewed, since it is likely that the cavity belongs to the municipality of Cabó, instead of that of Coll de Nargó where it has been placed since the first exploration.
