Location

From Sant Quintí de Mediona, we will take the passeig de les Deus to the end, at the gates of the Parc d'Oci i Natura de les Deus. We will continue on foot alongside the fence in a N direction. At the end we will cross the riera de Sant Quintí. From here we will follow a path in a NW direction that after 100 m turns towards the SW and shortly before reaching the torrent de Can Llopard we will see the shelter a few metres to the right of the path.

Although only just, it is located in the municipality of Mediona, and not in that of Sant Quintí de Mediona as cited in the Inventari del Patrimoni Arqueològic.
