Approach

On the south-east side of the Valdediezmo above the basin where the track zig-zags down there is a steep-sided valley. At the head of this valley near the top of the ridge is Torca Grande. At the same level and 50m round to the right lies an obvious cave entrance

Entrance

A 5m by 6m cave in a cliff face.

Description

A daylight entrance chamber extends 10m. The way on is down a soil slope on the right to a crawl. After 20m the roof rises to a height of 10m. Easy uphill walking for 30m leads to 40m of steeply ascending passage which ends in a boulder choke.
