This action responds to a historical demand from the Tremp Learning Center (Camp d’Aprenentatge de Tremp), which regularly uses the site as an open-air classroom. Especially during May and June, the lack of shade made it difficult for dozens of students to work under the intense sun.
The Orcau 2 site is an international reference point where dozens of footprints of titanosaurs are preserved—the gigantic long-necked dinosaurs that inhabited the Conca Dellà. Visitors can clearly identify the different morphologies of the tracks, distinguishing between the feet and handprints of these large quadrupeds.
With this new infrastructure, which acts as a climate refuge, the Geoparc Orígens aims to ensure that school groups, tourists, and scientists can carry out their work in optimal conditions, avoiding the risks of extreme heat and facilitating fieldwork.
In addition to the shaded area, the organization Salvatgines repaired the rope and access stairs, improving the safety and accessibility of the enclosure. The project was funded by the Institute for the Development and Promotion of the Alt Pirineu i Aran (IDAPA) with the support of the Isona i Conca Dellà City Council and the Conca Dellà Museum.
