Descrizione
Morfologia
The entrance consists of a chamber 10 metres long by 4 metres high, while the width ranges between 3 and 5 metres. At the back of the chamber and after a small step, we cross a rounded passage about 2 metres in diameter that places us in another chamber 5 x 2 and 2 metres high, where at the back and on the left we find a crawl of a couple of metres that will lead us to a triangular chamber with dimensions similar to the first but a little more than one metre high. On the right of the chamber one reaches the last chamber.
Concrezioni
In the last chamber we find a great abundance of stalagmitic formation.
Storia
Known since ancient times by the inhabitants of the area, it may have been used as a hiding place at some point.
J. Senent and JM. Victoria (Montaña 100) mention the Miravall cave without further data. We therefore do not know whether reference was being made to the Forat Negre de Miravall or to the Espluga de Miravall. On the ICGC map it appears georeferenced as Cova de Miravall.
From the biospeleological data, we now know that it was visited by O. Escolà and J. Comas on 8-1-1987. It is not, however, until the campaigns carried out by GIRES Sesrovires during the 1990's that specific data on the cavity are available.
