Descrizione

Morfologia

It is a single gallery of 7.45 metres. On the back wall and at ground level there is a narrow passage that gives access to another conduit.

Progressione

We do not know whether this conduit continues, since the dimensions of the passage did not allow us to enter it.

Storia

The first reference we have of an exploration is the one carried out by members of the GES - CMB in October 1950, when they made the first visit to the Cova de les Encantades.
