Tips

Francesc Garcia - MONTFRANC

September 27, 2022

Before reaching the Collada del Fau, if we come from the Castle of Bac de Grillera, we find a quite narrow gap with a path that goes inside and crosses it in its entirety. Inside the crack, almost reaching the end, and in its deepest part, the Pou del Fau begins by means of a ramp with a slight slope and covered by plant debris. At -7 meters a first well of -17 vertical meters begins, very narrow and with some small landing of clastic origin.
At the eastern end of the lower floor, depth continues to be gained by another well with a -9 meter drop. From this point, exploration becomes impossible due to the narrowness of the duct. To visit its interior it is necessary to have the appropriate knowledge and equipment.
