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 zig-zag we will leave the path and cross a torrent to head towards some walls that lie to the south. First we will find the cova del Pi Gros, a little further east we find the cova del Pont and a little further east we find the cova del Roser; about 10 metres above is the cova de l'Escala, which is visible from the road and the river, serving as a reference for its situation before starting the ascent. A fixed rope is installed for climbing.

About 25 metres above the entrance and 30 metres to the east opens the entrance of the cova NS-19, which connects with the cova de l'Escala.

Descrizione

Morfologia

The gallery of the cova de l'Escala has regular dimensions of 2.5 x 7.5 metres and about 8 metres in length; at this point there is a kind of ladder formed by a trunk with steps, which allows climbing to an upper gallery full of blocks (currently the ladder is broken). At the end of this gallery and in the ceiling, a hole gives access to a room of notable dimensions where through the ceiling it communicates with the cova NS-19. The entrance of this cave is located 28 metres above and 30 metres to the east of the cova de l'Escala, it is constituted by a small gallery where at approximately 20 metres of passage a desobstruction had to be made. The total vertical extent is 36 metres (-28/+8).

Concrezioni

The continuation of the small gallery of the cova NS-19 places us in a gallery with some concretions where on the floor a desobstruction was made that allowed the connection with the large room of the cova de l'Escala.

Storia

Known since ancient times as the entrance can be seen from afar, the first data is provided by G. Iñigo (SIE-CEA). GIRES re-explored it in various campaigns carried out in the 90s providing new data by linking the cova de l'Escala with the cova NS-19.
