Descrizione
Morfologia
A narrow mouth places us in a gallery 2 x 4 metres and 30 in length; this, at 20 metres, opens laterally on the left and, after a small climb, into a gallery up to 10 metres wide. 25 metres further on and after overcoming a barrier of large piled-up blocks, we find ourselves in the very middle of a room 15 metres in diameter and 12 metres high. If we continue towards the NW we will be able to continue for about 136 metres through a rosary of small rooms of variable and reduced sizes but in general uncomfortable to explore. If from the room we head to the NE, behind an elbow in the wall we find the access to a gallery that does not exceed 1 metre in height along its entire length, except for the final small room which is 3 metres high. At the middle of the route we find a diversion to the right in a SE direction with a floor with plenty of sand and it ends up becoming impenetrable.
Storia
Known since ancient times by the inhabitants of the area, the oldest exploration of a speleological and archaeological nature of which there is news is by Lluis Marià Vidal (1894).
In 2002, the SIE del CE Àliga carried out some clearances in the NE gallery, advancing a few metres, but no possible continuation is observed. (Unpublished data, archive of Francesc Rubinat).
