Description

Morphology

Small cavity partly in the tufa.

Progression

At the bottom, a small, very narrow 2-metre step could not be passed (to be revisited)[ref]Guillaume CHARDIN - CDS83, Fichier des cavités du Var > "Trou du Barrage" (numére 2103145): https://www.fichiertopo.fr/display.php?details=true&indexid=2481[/ref].

Other details

A hinge at the entrance is evidence of a former door, now gone.

History

The cavity must have been fitted out a very long time ago for shelter.
