Location

At the entrance to Capçanes we will find the Celler Cooperatiu. We must follow carrer Llaberia to the end of the village and continue along a cemented path that follows the barranc de la Vall. This cemented path gradually gains height until reaching a junction of paths, where we leave the path that takes us towards the Fou and continue to the left, along a dirt track that climbs towards the Vall de Calàs. Here we find a junction of tracks and take a path that climbs decisively towards the forat de Llaberia, located at the foot of the cingle de Calàs.

Entrances

Always verify coordinates and access conditions before setting out.

Description

Morphology

The cavity has two entrances, one of 4 x 3 metres and another of 4 x 2.5 metres. It is formed by a gallery 10 metres long that leads us to a small chamber of 4 x 5 metres from which a crawlway emerges that ends at 3 metres.

History

Known since time immemorial, but practically unpublished for speleologists until it was visited on 5 July 2014 by members of the GE Badalona.
