Location

E of the summit of Farrubio (791 m). The easiest access starts from the northernmost bend of the well-known “Caragol” of the road that climbs mont Caro. Follow the ridge in an ENE direction along a faint path that passes a few metres below it. Well before reaching the summit of Farrubio, descend along a ridge where the pit is found.
