Caratteristiche

Località

Shelter located to the SW of the Roca dels Corrals, above the Gurp cliff. You must go to the village of Gurp (Tremp), cross the village and, before reaching the Raval, you will find a large parking area. From here we will head back towards the cluster of houses; just as we arrive, on the right, a wide ascending path leads us to the water tanks. Behind these begins the path with yellow paint marks that climbs the crag in zigzags some 75 metres in height; in about 10 minutes we will find ourselves on a ledge where the path passes in front of the various corrals. We have classified them from West to East, so this is the second in an E direction, it is located above the cliff of the village of Gurp.

Storia

Known since time immemorial. Initially, before the construction of the village of Gurp, they were very probably used as dwellings, and later they came to be used as corrals. In the 1860 census they already appear cited as corrals. Some of the names of the corrals are known, cova d'en Peixeco, cova de Genera or Geneva, cova d'en Muntaner, cova de la Roca, cova d'en Sisco Macià, but we have not been able to identify which corral each of the names corresponds to.
