Caratteristiche

Località

Past kilometre 6 of the road from Terrassa to Mura is the second entrance to the les Pedritxes urbanisation. You need to head for carrer de Dalt as far as the junction with carrer de la Dauradella; a few metres further on, on the right, a path sets off and in a few metres climbs up to a water tank. On the left we follow a path westwards that climbs towards the collet de les Foradades (here there is a water tank). Following a well-marked path westwards, in a few minutes you reach the upper part of the turó de les Foradades.

You can also go from Can Roure (shortly before kilometre 5 of the same road), climb to the collet de Can Roure and, on the right, following the serra de les Pedritxes, head towards the turó de Sant Joan and the coll of the same name until reaching, via the Moleta, the coll de les Foradades (where there is the water tank).

Descrizione

Morfologia

A group of twelve hollows in the rock, most of them raised up, which form a very striking and curious sight. Some of the holes connect with each other and form two sectors. The left-hand one, the longest and easy to access, can be traversed perfectly well without having to stoop. The right-hand one requires climbing to reach and, to move around inside it, you have to stoop.

Altri dettagli

A group of small cavities totalling about 80 m of passage in the Serra de l'Obac.

Storia

Known since time immemorial.

For more than 40 years the turó de les Foradades has been a place very well known to different generations of speleologists from the Vallès and the whole metropolitan area of Barcelona, for carrying out outdoor practice and cave rescue exercises. The wall, with a height ranging between 11 and 12 metres, has various routes for carrying out all kinds of manoeuvres usual in underground exploration.
