Caratteristiche

Località

Leaving Fígols, on the road to Romanins, we come to a crossroads; following the left-hand path that goes to Voloriu we will keep climbing. Once we have covered almost 1 kilometre, we will always take the right-hand path until we reach some cultivated fields, where at the far end we will find some holm oaks and the mas de les Casanoves. From the same farmhouse a path leads to the plain located to the S of the house, at the SW end of which the cavity is found.

Descrizione

Morfologia

The entrance is small (1X0.50 metres) and leads us to a small chamber full of blocks. On one side, a small ramp leads us to a shaft 15 metres deep; on the other side, the chamber descends along a gallery until reaching a small chamber that is blocked by debris.

Storia

Explored by the ERE of the CEC in 1970. Rediscovered in 2017 by Joan Pallisé and Ramon Sendra.

Toponymy: The name is probably not the correct one, since the place where the cavity is located is (according to the ICGC) the mas de les Casanoves, and not de les Cases Noves.
