Caratteristiche

Località

On the plans of Can Torneula, located above the cingles d'Espunyola, stands the farmhouse of the same name. The old cultivated fields end right at the cliff edge. The cave is found between two large boundary markers that delimit the municipal territory (Capolat and Espunyola), located a little more than 200 metres from the farmhouse, on a small ledge about 10 metres below the first stepped cliff.

Descrizione

Morfologia

Cave 26 metres long. A square mouth through which one enters a large chamber of 22X13X4 metres, with a flat ceiling.

Idrologia

A permanent lake inside occupies 3/4 of the chamber. After heavy rainfall, the excess water exits through the mouth, plunging down the cliff.

Storia

The cave is used as a natural cistern for the nearby farmhouse of Can Torneula, from which it follows that it has been known since ancient times. Since 1979 it was known by Mr. Rafael Bermúdez; informed by him, the SIES d'Esplugues explored it in 1991.
