Tuta d'Escaladuix

Camprodon • Ripollès23m0

Small cave with a passage of 23 metres near Beget (Camprodon), located and explored on 23 June 1969 by members of the ERE of the CEC.

Characteristics

Location

From Beget we follow the paved track towards Oix; just before crossing the Riera de Beget at the height of the pont d'en Quelet, we turn left onto the track that runs along the left bank of the Riera de Beget, until we reach cal Barrancot. From the farmhouse, after crossing a torrent, we continue along the path up to the collet that lies below the Tuta dels Trigassos; from there, we must follow the path in an E direction and leave it shortly after to climb by another path that goes up a torrent that descends from the O from the 919 spot height and touches the foot of a crag with large balmes. We must follow the foot of the crag towards the O, along the cornice formed by the Balmes until these end and the forest begins. The cave lies 30 metres further to the O, 2 metres above the base of the crag.
