Caratteristiche

Località

From Capçanes you must take the camí de la Fou (PR-C 91) and, once past the Mas del Collet (Hotel La Heredad), turn right onto the path towards the Montalt (GR-7). Shortly before reaching the Portella del Montalt, this cave is found on the right of the path.

Descrizione

Morfologia

Two connected vestibules form the widest part of the cavity. From the left and wider one, a tall gallery of short length emerges which, in its lower part, is obstructed by blocks and, in its upper part, comes out again to the exterior through a narrow conduit. On the floor of this same vestibule and located behind a block, is found the small mouth of a shaft of very small dimensions, especially in width.

Progressione

Of the two explorations we know of, there are different assessments of its depth; that of the GIE (1961) claim to have descended about 35 metres, while in that of the GEP (1974) they estimate they were unable to get past 20 metres of depth, despite specifying that the shaft continues but that the narrowness becomes impassable.

Storia

Cited by N. Llopis Lladó from his research in the area in 1934 or 1935, but without providing any data. Everything indicates that the first exploration was carried out by members of the GIE – CE Gràcia around 1961.
