Descrizione
Morfologia
The entrance, 110 x 124 centimetres, gives access to a 1.80-metre shaft that can be descended without problems; once at the base, we find a small gallery at a right angle that ends after a few metres. The drop is 2.50 metres with a total length of 8 metres.

Altri dettagli
Unfortunately, being right next to the path, there is always some inconsiderate person who takes the opportunity to throw empty drinks bottles and cans into it.
Storia
The first news we have of this cavity is from a list of biospeleological activities in el Montgrí around the year 1961. They cite it as Pou del Clot de l'Avi Company and attribute 20 metres of depth to it.
They say that it formerly had larger dimensions, but that some residents of Torroella exploded old bombs from the civil war in it, demolishing it for the most part; we do not know on what date this event could have occurred.
The story of the explosion of the bombs may be true, but Joan Pallarès visited it in 1979 and already found that the pit was only 5 metres. Still some years later, in 2008, members of the SIE – CEA observe that the depth has been reduced to 2 metres.
