      The Cau dels Emboscats is one of the cavities that served as a refuge during the civil war. Specifically, several people hid from Sant Llorenç Savall.
      The situation of the cave was kept secret for many years after the end of the conflict. It wasn't until October 28, 1956, that Biel Dalmau, from the Mas de les Oliveres, explained its location and history to Josep Maria Torras Homet.
      The mouth is very irregular. It opens in the form of a chasm that falls on an inclined floor. Then there is a 2 meter ledge leading to the main gallery parallel to the cliff and about 20 meters long.
      In the middle of the gallery there is a large window that forms a kind of side room poured into the steeply sloping cliff.
      The cavity ends in an elbow and a small room, where small stalactite formations and parietal crusts can be observed.
