Vall de Bianya, La • Garrotxa 14m

Small cave with a 14-metre passage in the Garrotxa, in the Vall de Bianya, with a single gallery with a flat floor.

Caratteristiche

Località

The cavity is located in the Garrotxa, in the Vall de Bianya, to the SW of el Talló peak (1277 m), on the right bank and at the foot of a cliff of a stream that rises to the S of the collet del Triadú, about 15 metres above the thalweg and near the junction of the track that leads to Sant Andreu de Porreres with the one that climbs up to Reclusanys.

To get there, going from Castellfollit de la Roca to Oix along the GIV-5221 road, after travelling a couple of kilometres, we will turn left onto a paved track in the direction of the Vall del Bac; on reaching the Hostal de la Vall del Bac, we will turn right onto a track in the direction of Sant Miquel de la Torre; once at this point, we will turn right and follow the track to near the aforementioned junction.
