Location
Perhaps 50m above the Nanoo resurgence a dry river bed climbs for about 2/300m to reach the large entrance, which is an occasional resurgence, about 12m up a cliff.
Description
An easy 4m climb reaches the entrance to access a low passage with a strong draught. After a short distance a P11 provides an alternative access and, beyond, in the Salle des Roussettes is found a large bat colony. A well decorated chamber follows and the cave ends at a sump.
