Caratteristiche

Località

Along the track that climbs beside the Estrets river, before reaching the recreational area of the mas de la Franqueta, and more precisely near the mas de Juanito, a path branches off which, after crossing a wood, leads us to some terraced fields above the ruins of the mas de Corretjà. In the highest terrace, covered by trees, is the entrance of the pit.

(Note: The coordinates and therefore the location on the map are approximate, but due to the requirements of the computer program we must give some data in this section).

Descrizione

Morfologia

The elliptical entrance, 3 x 4 metres, gives onto a 3 metre drop. Afterwards, a 9 metre shaft leaves us in a gallery lined with blocks; following it, and although at first it appears ascending, we will reach the level – 21, after descending two verticals of 5 and 7 metres. In the opposite direction the gallery descends rapidly until reaching some drops between blocks that allow one to reach the bottom of the pit.

Characteristic collapse fissure.
