Caratteristiche

Località

It is located in the Mont-roig range. To reach it, go to the village of Vilanova de la Sal and continue towards the railway halt; turn right towards the ermita de Montalegre. Once at the junction leading to the ermita, continue along the track on the right towards the coll de Porta; once past it, continue to the end of the track where there is a forest refuge. From there, go back until you find the first torrent on the right of the track, and follow it until it is cut by the crag, at which point you will find a gap that allows you to descend to a ledge of the crag, which you follow eastwards until reaching the limit of the torrent. From here, descend among blocks to a new ledge where the Cova del Llop Petit is found, which is a series of 8 impenetrable springs. Once past these, descend through the middle of the torrent for about 30 metres on a steep slope until reaching a new ledge where the Cova del Llop is found.

Descrizione

Morfologia

It is a series of parallel conduits connected to one another by perpendicular galleries, very probably originating from a drainage zone of the massif in which the local tectonics of the cliff where it is found have played a part.

Storia

Discovered by GEFOMA in April 1977 and explored by them on 3 July 1977. Its discovery was due to a general oversight while going to the cova del Lladre, by taking the wrong torrent and ending up at a point above the crag from which one of the entrances could be seen.
