Avenc del Bages

A wide but low mouth that narrows as we enter. At 3 metres, we will find a 2-metre drop that can be descended with the help of an iron bar that is placed above it and which we can hold with our hands. Towards the NE, there is a shaft that communicates directly with the main chamber, but it can be descended on the other side through different vertical squeezes where we find some drops, until reaching the end of the main chamber without it being necessary to use equipment, but with caution.

From the main chamber we will descend in a NE direction to the opposite end, where we will find different galleries in all directions but with no possibility of continuation. A narrow passage, cleared, gives way to the Sala del Gall measuring 5x4x2 metres. At the back of this chamber two variants open up, the one on the right, called La Gansa, descends some 6 metres and is closed. On the left we will continue descending to the Sala de la Gallina, of similar dimensions to the previous one. At the back of this chamber we will also find two variants. On the right we will descend some 4 metres reaching a small reduced chamber called El Lavabo. Returning to the previous point, on the left we will descend some 4 metres among blocks and reach the Sala de l'Ou, measuring 13x7x2 metres, formed by blocks fallen from a large slab of the ceiling. Between the blocks a small shaft opens on the right that gives access to the last chamber, but if we go to the left, we will descend a 4-metre drop that will place us in the Sala del Peix, this chamber is elongated and full of fallen blocks, with dimensions of 17x3x2 metres. From this chamber, by means of a crack that descends some 3 metres we access the Sala el Pollet Escaldat measuring 12x2x4 metres, where we find many animal bones crushed by fallen stones. This is the deepest point of the cavity located at -33 metres.

The main chamber is full of lithogenic formations. The Sala del Gall has beautiful white and eccentric formations.
