The mouth, opened by digging out (in the early years it was very small, but over time it has been enlarged artificially: approximately 0.6 x 1.4 m), communicates with a magnificent 19-metre vertical shaft that forms an almost circular chamber about 12-15 metres in diameter. From the landing point and below the mouth, it is possible to climb back up, between blocks and massive stalagmitic formations, about 3 metres to reach the highest point of the chamber. In the opposite direction, the floor presents a descending ramp covered by small clastic materials. At the lowest point of the chamber a passage begins, of reduced dimensions but easy to negotiate, which descends by short ramps and small drops, between heavily decorated walls. This leads to a narrow crawl, with very smooth walls (popularly known as el Tap de Xampany), which opens into a small 4-metre shaft. At its bottom a low-roofed passage opens out into a terminal chamber about 10 by 15 metres and 3-4 metres high. At the entrance the floor is flat, but the northernmost side presents an ascending ramp between blocks that climbs until it becomes closed.

The chamber of the entrance shaft still preserves some spectacular lithogenic formations, mainly on the walls. In the low-roofed passage there were many tubular stalactites, macarrons, that formed a curtain.

At the small 4-metre shaft it is advisable to use a rope. At one time it was almost impossible to get through the low-roofed passage without breaking some of the many tubular stalactites, macarrons, that formed a curtain.
