access for Cova de Vallgornera on the island of Majorca

[neillien]

Hi, I am going caving in Majorca next year and i wondering if anyone knows what the access is for Cova  de Vallgornera.

I know that Nigel Dibben of the DCC has done a lot of caving in Mallorca.

I'm sure he can be contacted via the DCC website here: http://www.derbyscc.org.uk/

I'm also sure he will be "on duty" on the Alderley Edge Open Weekend 6/7 September 2014 if you wish to meet him. He's very good to talk to.

Hi There

I managed to get a trip into Vallgornera in 2011 - I believe we contacted the Federacion Balear Espeleologia (http://www.federaciobalearespeleologia.org/) on the email address federaciobalear@yahoo.es. Probably best to write the email in Spanish/Catalan as they didn't speak much English. We had a great trip, it is an amazing place!

This Easter a few friends of mine from MUSC has another trip in there - I believe they contacted someone through speleo.club.mallorca@gmail.com and they have a basic website here: https://sites.google.com/site/speleoclubmallorca/about-me. I believe they had to pay for access and again they didn't speak much English so again Spanish/Catalan is probably best.

Hope that helps!
