More information
On the Costa Daurada you have the chance to explore the caves and potholes of l'Espluga de Francolí. For the more daring visitors, the caves offer the adventure route, a visit that goes beyond the museum, wading up the underground river. The Font Major cave in l'Espluga de Francolí is a good opportunity to get started in this kind of exploration, so even if you are not an expert you can try this sport. Equipped with wetsuits and head torches, you will enter the wet part of the cave through different galleries and along the bed of the underground river until you reach the Biela shaft chamber. All this accompanied by specialised guides who give technical explanations as an introduction to caving.
