Caratteristiche

Località

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 return in the direction of the cluster of houses; just arriving, on the right, a wide ascending path takes us to the water tanks, and behind these begins the path with yellow paint marks that climbs the cliff in zigzags about 75 metres of height. At the last bend, before reaching the place where the path runs alongside the cliff, we will leave the path following a faint trail in an E direction, and climbing a little to head towards the visible rock shelter that is about fifty metres away.

We have classified the corrals from West to East, so this is the seventh corral in an E direction; it is on the slope above 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, 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 d'en 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.
