Coll de Nargó • Alt Urgell 8m

A small cave only 8 m long in the S of the village of Gavarra (Coll de Nargó), on the SW slope of the Tossal de Puig-antic, opened in Santonian limestones and marly limestones.

Caratteristiche

Località

About 45 minutes S of the small village of Gavarra, on the SW slope of the Tossal de Puig-antic. The cavity is opened in the walls of the left bank of the torrent de Carreu, shortly before it receives the contributions of the torrent de Gavarra.

In this stretch the torrent is very entrenched and one must descend from the top of the cliff. If you do not know the area, someone must indicate the descent point from the other side of the torrent.

A few metres N of the Cova Trencada. Both cavities are excavated in Santonian limestones and marly limestones (Upper Cretaceous).
