    Covota of the fat hill. The cavity is located between the Gros de Bendinat hill and a hill to the NE of it, at the beginning of one of the headwaters of the coma of the s'Ermita spring. It's easy to find, it's on the side of the path that leads from Puig Gros to near Bendinat Castle, just past a pass. The cave is a complex cavity, the result of clastic processes throughout the cave and concretion in certain areas with a strong tectonic component. The refills with Quaternary breccias that have subsequently undergone subsidence processes are also present. The cavity is structured from a N-S fracture, and the rooms increase in depth following an E-W direction. The route is 670 m.

      Due to the island's predominantly soft, easily erodible limestone nature, numerous caves have formed over thousands of years. The impressive number of about 4000 grottoes and caves, as well as countless crevasses, characterize the landscape. However, the majority of them are inaccessible to humans. Among them is the Cova del puig gros.
