Avenc Nº1 del Capolatell

The pit is located in the serra de Busa (Solsonès), at the Capolatell. The recommended approach route is via the C-26 road from Solsona to Berga and, before reaching Navès, a track on the left with a sign indicating Busa (it can also be done from Cardona). The track becomes a dirt road in good condition without asphalt that climbs up to the coll d'Arques, where it meets on the left the track coming from the new road of the Llosa del Cavall. After the coll, continue for 2.1 km and on the right is the track that climbs from Sant Lleïr to the vall d'Ora. You must climb about 400 metres along a section with cement (grau de la Creu) up to the plateau, at 1360 metres of altitude.

To reach the Capolatell, follow the track for about 600 metres in a NE direction to a fork. The left branch descends towards the inhabited farmhouse of the Rial de Busa. Continue on the right and at 700 metres there is a new junction: on the right you leave Busa via the track of the Rasa de Valielles; on the left, towards the N, you pass beside a pool and at 200 metres you reach the start of the short forest track that leads to the ermita de Sant Cristòfol, and 500 metres further towards the W you pass beside the Vila, an old farmhouse now abandoned that is used as a corral. Continue 700 metres more to a small esplanade where half a dozen cars can be parked. From this point you must walk 1 km towards the W along a path that passes beside the rounded summit of the Capolat and descends, between forest and scrub, directly and without loss towards the Capolatell. A metal pole 8 metres long (replacing an old wooden footbridge) allows you to cross the fissure that isolates the two needles that form the Capolatell. The pit no. 1 of the Capolatell is located in the very middle of the westernmost needle, to the left of the main path that, coming from the iron footbridge, crosses the whole Capolatell from E to W.
