Description

Morphology

A cavity measuring 2 x 2 metres, where the ceiling descends and the walls close in until it becomes impenetrable.

History

Explored by GIRES over several campaigns carried out in the 90s. J. Senent and JM. Victoria (Montaña 100) mention the cave of Miravall without further data. Therefore we do not know whether they were referring to the Forat Negre de Miravall or to the Espluga de Miravall.
