Location

From the Camarasa dam a path sets off in the direction of the Vilanova de la Sal train halt, skirting the reservoir. At one point along the path we find a sign indicating the cova del Tabac; it is the only turning we will find. We must take the path on the left and follow it. The cavity opens in the middle of the path leading to the cova del Tabac, about a hundred metres before reaching it.

Entrances
