Description
Morphology
It is a group of fissures that have come to connect with each other. The lower entrance is cave-shaped and the upper entrance is located on the flat ground, just above the small cliff.
Progression
Access to the cavity is via the lower cave-shaped entrance, which connects with the main gallery, along the W end of which we will reach the maximum depth of -21 metres. The upper entrance acts as a swallow hole.
History
Located by the GEB in 1983.
