Coveta Nº3 de la Serra de la Costa

The most interesting cavity of the three, it is also a fox den. This cave is heavily eroded. It consists of two main entrances. The first one we find, about 2 m wide by 1.5 m high, leads us 2.5 m later to a first bedroom-chamber. On the left, a small crawlway communicates with the second entrance. At the back on the left we access another chamber via an R-1. This inclined-floor chamber has more fox “beds”. On our right there are two more passages that end 3 m later. At the back on the left there is a descending crawlway of about 2.5 m.

A small hole through which light from outside filters in indicates a connection with the second entrance.

On the left there is a passage that leads us to the second entrance, also with a balmed appearance. This entrance is about 2.5 m wide by 1.25 m high.

The first entrance, about 2 m wide by 1.5 m high, leads us 2.5 m later to a first bedroom-chamber. On the left, a small crawlway communicates with the second entrance. At the back on the left we access another chamber via an R-1. On the left there is a passage that leads us to the second entrance.

In the first bedroom-chamber a couple of typical fox “beds” can be seen, and recent droppings of these animals. In the inclined-floor chamber there are more fox “beds”.
