Description

Morphology

At the entrance, some cement steps have been made that descend into a kind of small room. From here there is a series of fairly narrow joint intersections that allow one to advance for about eighty metres.

History

The first reports on the exploration of the cave were provided by the GES del CMB. The first exploration dates from June 1948 and they attribute 110 metres of length to it. They also mention the cova del Mussol (?) with 14 metres of length, which apparently would be found in the surrounding area.
