Caratteristiche

Località

Going along the Camí de Can Puigmoltó towards Coll Sostrell, once past the turn-off that descends to the Fondo de la Troneda and shortly before a left-hand bend in the path, you must leave the path about 25 metres to the right, through the very middle of the small wood, until you locate the hollow. There are some very faint paths that can be used to make the approach.

Descrizione

Morfologia

It appears as a large hollow in the very middle of the vegetation. It is an old working of “sparry calcite” that descends by short steps down to 4.7 metres. In a S direction it is possible to enter a small underground chamber.

Storia

Rafael Amat i Carreras, during the campaign of August 1923, located and mentioned a small cavity at the Fondo de la Troneda, calling it the Avenc de la Pineda and attributing to it a depth of 3 metres. The area where this small cavity is found is the only one that in those years and later had pines; now, with the forest repopulations of recent years, they have proliferated much more, which is why we deduce that this is the same cavity to which Amat was referring.
