Descrizione

Morfologia

Important pit located in the Sierra de Aralar, with a first vertical section and very interesting for its sporting beauty. It reaches a depth of 366 meters and has more than 4 kms of development.

Idrologia

The final part of the cavity was explored by cave diving in 2006 in order to explore the terminal sump (Sifón Elicar), which gives way to the final chamber called Sala Sahara.

Progressione

The cavity presents a first vertical section. In 1964 the first 56-meter shaft was explored. In 1978 the S.C.A. reached the -304 level at a terminal sump. In 2006 cave diving was carried out in the terminal sump (Sifón Elicar), which gives way to the final chamber called Sala Sahara and which ends at a depth of 366 meters.

Altri dettagli

Currently access to the cavity is closed by order of the Government of Navarra and under a moratorium on visits in order to remove the waste, within the environmental improvement plan of the Parque Natural de Aralar.
