Descrizione
Morfologia
An entrance of regular dimensions gives access to a drop of just over 3 metres in depth and easy to overcome, which allows access to the upper part of a chamber with a sloping floor and about 6 metres long until reaching a narrow passage that communicates with the final part of the gallery a few metres further on (elevation -5.5 m.). A couple of short side passages complete the development of the cavity.

Altri dettagli
Geologically, it is a case of carbonate breccias belonging to the Fm. Bretxes del Cairat (lithostratigraphic unit defined by Pere Anadón in 1978).
Storia
David Hernàndez, an enthusiast of the search for dry stone huts and with the collaboration of Lluís Turu of Viladecavalls, who had told him about a hideout of emboscats, was able to locate the cavity on 22 November 2018 and make a first visit. He then got in touch with Salvador Vives i Jorba and a few days later, on 25 November, they returned together, carrying out the complete exploration and the survey.
Apparently it had served as a hiding place during the civil war, but this use had already been made of it during the second Carlist war (also called dels matiners), as emerges from the conversation with Miquel Margarit (92 years old) of Viladecavalls, who still remembers when he was small going hunting with his father and him saying that the people of the village called that hideout dels Matiners.
