Descrizione
Morfologia
A small entrance gives access to a ramp with a 40º incline, followed by a small shaft of 6.5 metres that places us at the upper part of a 55º ramp, totally occupied by blocks, which reaches -23 metres with respect to the upper lip of the entrance. Once again at the head of the last ramp, at the base of the small shaft and on its right side, we find another route which, by means of two steps, reaches the maximum depth of -28.7 metres.
Storia
Iglésies and Santasusagna in their guide to the Muntanyes de Prades (1930) and in the speleology chapter, say textually: El del Teix és, com el de la Febró, una colossal esquetxa descoberta, envaïda per la vegetació, on creix un teix grandiós; deu tenir 100 m. de llarg, per 10 d'ample i 50 de profunditat. Un dels forats explorats del serret dels Avencs comença en forma de cova i continua en esquerda fins a una probable profunditat de 50 metres. It seems they refer to one of the large collapses in the area and, regarding the cavity they mention, it could be what we know today as avenc del Teix but they could also be referring to the one catalogued as avenc de l'Espanyol, in the same area.
The most specific news of this cavity is given to us by members of the GGG who speak of an exploration in November 1968 and of the survey carried out on 6-1-1970.
