Caratteristiche

Località

Following the N-260 road from la Seu d'Urgell to Puigcerdà, on reaching kilometre 198, on the left we find the Pla de Codina industrial estate. From there one can see a cross situated at the top of the mountain, between the torrents of la Banya and d'Anes. One must climb about 100 metres of elevation gain in the direction of the cross, where we will find the cavity. Approximate coordinates without much precision.

Descrizione

Morfologia

Once past the narrow 1.5x0.3 metre entrance, we find a narrow descending crawlway that leads to a pit of irregular structure and 14 metres of depth. The pit, at -8 metres, divides in two and 3 metres further down they join again. At -9 metres a small gallery of short ascending route opens up, which towards its final part presents two impassable chimneys, as well as an opening in the floor that is also impassable. At -16 metres another ascending gallery opens up, which soon divides into two of short route.

Concrezioni

In the ascending gallery that opens at -16 metres, which soon divides into two of short route, we find some reconstructive formations.
