Introduction to caving

Margalef

Introduction to caving.

The Montsant is a catalan Natural Park. It is a mountain range known as Silence Mountains in the heart of Tarragona, and has on its west side, maybe its most unknown area, just because its orography.

This is where we propose a nice experience. We will enter the cave of the Taverna in the area of Margalef. This funny trip will take us 1 to 2 hours, it can be a beautiful first introduction to caving.

Very wet cave crossed by the ravine of the Taverna. Near the dam of Margalef may in certain occasions have the entrance flooded.

Activity able for the most of the people, as far as difficulty is concerned, but with all the magic of caving and the world of caves. Our guide will detail the uses that have had in the course of centuries and will guide you in the technical steps that you will find.

It emphasizes a rock engraving and the spectacular zone of leafy forest at the exit. Highly recommended if you like hiking but also something different.
