Approach

Follow the Beges track round the corner of the Mancondiu and as soon as possible go down the grassy slope to the left towards the large depressions on Valdediezmo side of the Sierra de la Corta. The second depression has a flat grassy bottom and the adjacent doline, at a bearing of 40 degrees. Entrance is on the eastern side

Entrance

An open rift 4m by 2m.

Description

A climb down through the entrance hole leads to a chamber. At the far side of this a 5 m pitch leads to a further chamber with a rift continuation, which soon becomes too tight. This was once a cheese cave, as it contains a wooden ladder and some shelving.
