Description
Morphology
The mouth opens about 2 metres above the ground, but is easy to access. The porch gives access to a low gallery in a SE direction that gradually gains height and finally, almost at the end, divides. On the left side we observe that the gallery is closed off by a flowstone coming from an impenetrable hole.
History
The coves del Garriga have been known locally in les Sansuies since time immemorial. Erroneously, in the Catàleg Espeleològic de Catalunya. Vol 2 (1978) they were cited as caves no. 1 and no. 2 of la Cativera, when la Cova de la Cativera cited in the old catalogues is none other than the one known as Avenc de la Cativera.
