The information for this site has been shared by Guy Simonnot (Simonnot G, 2022) and roughly translated from the French using Google Translate as a starting point. The original grid reference used ED50 datum which has been converted to the ETRS89 datum above, with the altitude taken off the MCP QGIS map.
At the end of a meadow at the Bustablado exit, taking the road towards La Corvera.
The cave is located in the hypothetical axis between the cave of Molino and that of Orcones. The 0.6 x 0.7 m entrance is a small hole 2 m deep which leaves us in a narrow meander; after having enlarged it, we reach an 8 m deep ramp which brings us to the entrance of a room with some beautiful formations. The continuation is at the bottom of this room, where through a narrow passageway one reaches a smaller room with a low roof where one can see the outside through a narrow ventilator. The strong current of air, which enters through this ventilator in hot weather and which probably does not go towards the upper entrance, could not be followed.
