Caratteristiche

Località

On the T-704 road, just past kilometre 17 on the left we find the locked track with a padlock that leads to the Mas del Morenet. From the padlock itself a path starts heading SW towards the cingle de Cova Llonga; the path descends through a gully until it places us on a narrow terrace that will take us to the cova dels Patacons; we will cross this and after a few metres we will reach the rock shelter.

Descrizione

Morfologia

It is a rock shelter 10 metres wide by 9 metres deep; the floor rises slightly at the inner part.

Storia

Known since long ago, as the whole of the cova dels Patacons and the rock shelter was known as Cova Llonga.

During the civil war the brothers Joan, David and Miquel Pàmies, known as els Patacons, took refuge in the cave. Years later relatives and descendants of these reclaimed the historical memory of those and the part corresponding to the foradada became known as cova dels Patacons; the fact of having equipped a spectacular via ferrata with this name that passes between the two caves has also contributed to this.
