Description
Morphology
It is a rock shelter 4 metres high and 2.5 wide. On the right wall we will find a gallery hanging 3 metres from the floor. An easy climb takes us to a comfortable gallery with an average width of 1.5 metres which at the end narrows until reaching a small shaft of 1.6 metres where the cavity ends.
History
Known since time immemorial. Cited in some reports of cavities of archaeological interest. Excavated towards the end of the 1950s by Joan Bellmunt (CEB Museu Balaguer, Vilanova i la Geltrú).
