Small cave with a passage of 7 m on the Brugent river (Vilaverd), with an entrance of 0.35 x 0.70 m and a drop of 2.5 m.

Characteristics

Location

From la Riba along the TV-7044 road we reach the Font Major. From the spring, heading NW, we follow the irrigation channel for a few metres until we find a path that descends to the river. Past a large slab, crossing the river, scrambling among blocks and much Aritjol, we come upon a cliff. To the left, an airy ledge skirts the wall as far as some bushes; passing through them among blocks, the small entrance appears.
