Description
Morphology
Formed by a single gallery of regular dimensions and slightly ascending. The final stretch, via a descending ramp between sediments, ends in a very narrow conduit.
History
The first report of this cavity was given by Josep Closas in his work on the cova de la Fou de Bor, the result of explorations carried out at the end of July 1935 by members of the Club Muntanyenc Barcelonès.
Practically no further news of it exists until, in 1977, it was visited by members of the GE Badalona and the SEOG, who carried out desobstruction work in the last stretch of the cave and also surveyed it.
It was also the subject of a minor archaeological intervention.
