Caratteristiche

Località

Following the T-322 road from Mont-roig towards Colldejou, at around km 11.5 and after a very sharp bend, we find, on the left, the cave located right above the road itself. On the right side of the road there is a space to park. A path leads to the cavity, which is a few metres away.

Descrizione

Morfologia

Cave about 7 metres deep by about 10.30 wide, excavated in the characteristic red sandstone of the area, which presents some veins of gypsum. The front part is closed by a stone wall one metre high. A quarter of the cave is invaded by vegetation.

Altri dettagli

The cave was used as a shelter for livestock; on the floor there is still straw and some excrement. Given the dimensions of the cavern, the herd could not have been very large. On one side of the entrance there is a large hinge that would have formed part of a small door.

Storia

Known since time immemorial, although it had never been cited speleologically. Referenced on the ICGC map, although poorly located.
