Caratteristiche

Località

On the road from Noves de Segre to Taús and before reaching Bellpui, we find a track on the left that leads to a house and a few metres further down reaches the river; the track continues on the other side of the river, following its course. About a hundred metres after having crossed the river we will take an ascending path on the right-hand side. After half an hour of climbing in zigzag we will leave the path and cross a torrent to head towards some walls that lie to the south. First we will find cova del Pi Gros, a little further east we find cova del Pont and a little further east we find cova del Roser; about 10 metres above is cova de l'Escala, which is visible from the road and the river; cova de la Barra is located 370 metres east of cova de l'Escala, on the other side of the ravine; it is difficult to approach due to the vegetation and the verticality of the terrain. The entrance of cova de la Barra is found in a large fissure that can be seen from the road; cova superior de la Barra is located just above the previous one.
