Description
Morphology
Rock shelter 10 metres deep in Odèn. The cavity ascends about 8 metres over a route of 10 metres.
Speleothems
Right in the middle of the entrance we find a large stalagmite about 2 metres high.
Progression
As it is a very rarely visited cave, due to its location and lack of knowledge about it, access can be difficult because of the large amount of brambles and, if it is wet, it is slippery.
Other details
Once inside, the whole valley can be seen.
History
The only data we know about the cavity are those provided by Salvador Codina, who explored it in the last decade of the past century.
