Caratteristiche

Località

In the very middle of the riera de Milany, on the southern slope of the homonymous serra.

From Santa Maria de Besora begins the paved track that leads to Llaés. After about 3 km, the track passes through the coll de Beví and starts to descend on the other slope. About 700 m after the coll, a track leaves to the right towards the house of l'Espunyola, which we will leave behind and continue along the track, which soon becomes a path that climbs the riera de Milany along the left hydrographic slope at a certain height.

Shortly before the path crosses the riera, we will take a not very marked footpath that leaves to the right and will lead us to the foot of the salt del Molinot.

Descrizione

Morfologia

The salt del Molinot is a waterfall about 10 m high. At its foot a pool of 16 x 7 metres is formed.

In the wall of the waterfall there is a shallow rock shelter that continues behind the cascade, giving rise to a cave that forms between the tosca rock and the bedrock of the wall.

The length of the cave is 6.5 m and it crosses behind the whole flowstone of tosca stone, although in its centre there is a narrow passage. The rock shelter that precedes the entrance of the cave is 10 m long by not quite 3 m deep.

Concrezioni

The water of the waterfall hangs down over a beautiful tosca stone concretion in the form of a layer or a fan, so that it widens towards the base.

Idrologia

Where the waters of the riera de Milany flow. At the foot of the waterfall a pool of 16 x 7 metres of transparent waters is formed.
