Description
Morphology
It is a rock shelter 45 metres wide by 10 metres deep.
Hydrology
Remains of a construction that appears to be a cistern are preserved; even so, in other parts of the rock shelter there are also spots where water accumulates.
History
Known since time immemorial. Initially, before the construction of the village of Gurp, they were very probably used as dwellings; later they came to be used as corrals. In the 1860 census they already appear cited as corrals. Some of the names of the corrals are known, cova d'en Peixeco, cova d'en Genera or Geneva, cova d'en Muntaner, cova de la Roca, cova d'en Sisco Macià, but we have not been able to identify which corral each of the names corresponds to.
