Caratteristiche

Località

From Vilafranca del Penedès we will follow the BV-2119 road towards the centre of Moja; from the southern part of this, where the sports facilities are, we will follow a tarmac path that after passing by the mas Granell leads to can Castellví. The cavity is located about 20 metres above the mas, but it is difficult to find because of the vegetation and the small dimensions of the entrance, so it is more practical to ask at the mas for the location of the cavity.

Descrizione

Morfologia

The entrance, of reduced dimensions (40X30 cm), gives access to the only shaft of -8 metres deep, originated at the expense of a joint of N-NE orientation, which is the one that forms the cavity. The floor plan of the cavity has 17.50 metres of passage, with an average width of 0.60 metres.

Progressione

On the E side, and once a chaos of blocks that forms a small step has been passed, one descends to the maximum level of the cavity, located at -11, 50 metres.
