Description
Morphology
Rock shelter 15 metres wide and 9 metres deep. At the far end there are two small passages just over one metre long. The height of the rock shelter is about 4 metres and decreases to 0.9 metres at the back. The rock shelter is closed off by a dry-stone wall about 2 metres high, except on the NE side where it has the access.
Other details
Inside there is a Renault R-6 vehicle in fairly good bodywork condition that we assume is used as a shelter, and there is also a wooden table right in the middle of the rock shelter.
History
A cavity unpublished speleologically, although known since time immemorial by the local people. The place name La Cova already appears in the editions of the oldest maps. We do not know whether it is known by any other more specific name; given the doubt, we have chosen to cite it with the name under which it appears on the maps.
