Caratteristiche

Località

From Vallirana we will take the N-340 road towards Ordal, exit at the Urbanització Maset del Lledoner/Pedreres exit, and continue along the old N-340 road to the coll de l'Ordal and from there head towards the Telègraf quarry; before reaching it, on the right, a track leads towards Puig d'Agulles which we will leave, and a few metres further on, also on the right, there is a track in poor condition that reaches an abandoned quarry; we will pass the old control hut and a few metres beyond, beside the path, we will easily find this pit.

Currently (2025) the cavity has been deliberately filled in with rubble.

Descrizione

Morfologia

A single cylindrical shaft 0.80 m in diameter reaches a depth of 3.50 m. At 2.30 m there is a wedged block. At the base of the shaft the dimensions are slightly wider (1.20 x 0.80 m).

Progressione

The shaft has a trunk placed vertically, so we can descend without problems.

Storia

Unpublished cavity (it possibly appeared during the working of the old quarry) and where anonymous hands had done some digging out at its bottom. There is no record of it until the visit by members of GE Badalona in January 2014.

It has nothing to do with the avenc de les Teules or del Telègraf, located at the Pla d'Ardenya and disappeared due to the quarry many years ago.
