Small pit in the area of les Comes, at the les Calobres wind farm, el Perelló.

Characteristics

Location

From el Perelló along the TV-3022 road towards Rasquera, at kilometre 3.86 there is a large lay-by on the left-hand side where you can leave the road and take the dirt track that continues in the opposite direction to the one we were coming from. After 240 metres we come to a junction; we continue along the middle path for 80 metres, where we come to a new junction that we follow to the left; 75 metres further on we come to a new turn-off, we continue to the left. From here we head towards the les Calobres wind farm (4x4 vehicle); after covering 1.07 kilometres from the last turn-off, we arrive level with the turbines at a sharp right-hand bend, we head to the left as far as an electricity pylon where we will park. From here we head S10W for 68 metres, where we will find the cavity, near the only pine tree on the slope (2012 data). Approximate coordinates.
