Cova Nº2 de Can Ponçgem

Petita cova a la Palma de Cervelló

Palma de Cervelló, La • Baix Llobregat5m2m

Small cave in la Palma de Cervelló, with an entrance half hanging on the cliff and an inner chamber.

Characteristics

Location

The most feasible route to reach it at present is, at the entrance to La Palma de Cervelló, to head right toward the cemetery; shortly before arriving there we pass under a power line. We will have to go back up the path that climbs parallel to the line until it ends at a flat cross path; we will follow it to the left for a few metres and then immediately turn right, where the path climbs again. This brings us quite close to the base of the cliff where the electricity tower is. We will have to leave the path and follow some small trails along the E side of the cliff until we find the remains of a building; from there we can already access the base of the cliff toward the W. Before reaching below the tower, to its right, the small cavity is found.

Description

Morphology

Through an entrance, half hanging on the cliff, about 2 m wide by another 2 m high, one can enter a chamber of more or less the same dimensions and about 3 m long. At its back, on the left, a very narrow fissure opens that descends about 2 m of drop.

History

Unpublished cavity, although it had already been detected by the first explorers of the Cova de Can Ponçgem.
