Caratteristiche

Località

A few metres from the Cal Agustí restaurant, in the village of Cambrils, a path leaves on the right of the road that goes to Llinars; we will go up this path until we reach a small flat area. From here we will follow a small trail in a S direction, and we will continue climbing among blocks, scree and pines, until the trail ends at a covered fissure. We will leave it, and climb to the left a few more metres in the same direction, until we find the marking of the cavity. (Data from 1996).

Descrizione

Morfologia

It is a group of three large fissures arranged in the shape of a triangle. The large fissure has a plan of approximately 16X4 metres, communicating with the middle fissure in the upper part, and with the small fissure in the lower part through the sala Marta and the sala Crilin, which would be a continuation of the large fissure. Below the lower part of the large fissure and through a narrow passage, we will reach the sala Rodrigo, full of rocks fallen from the ceiling, while in the northernmost part, it could communicate with the sala Ruïna, despite a great chaos of unstable blocks. Below we will find l'esquerda Xuxe, about 7 metres deep, which communicates through a very narrow passage after having been cleared with the sala Amarga, also full of a great chaos of fallen blocks.

The middle fissure has a plan of approximately 30X1.5 metres, communicating on one side with the large fissure, and through the sala dels Xupats, located in the middle and below, it communicates with the small fissure.

Below the sala dels Xupats, we will find the sala de la Ruïna, formed by unstable blocks, and next to it in a N direction, as a possible continuation of the small fissure, there is a fissure impenetrable up to the present. On the other side of the middle fissure we will find the sales del Niu and of the Cistella, which are the most welcoming, open to the outside from above.

The small fissure has a plan of approximately 14X1 metre, with a very narrow passage at the end, where it meets the middle fissure. It has a height of about 14 metres, and descends 4 metres more to the sala Crilin, which is the deepest point of this. It is the most curious to go through because of its narrowness.

Progressione

All the chambers can be visited without the need for ropes, with the exception of l'esquerda Xuxe with the sala Amarga.

Storia

Known in the area since time immemorial. The first exploration of which we have reference was carried out by the CE Solsonès.
