Location

To reach the cavity, go to the end of Carrer Camí de Sòcies, in the Urbanització de Can Palet (Corbera de Llobregat).

From a little before the end of the street, descend the slope and cross the torrent in a NW direction; at about 50 metres, just before reaching a small cliff, climb to the left and, once past the cliff, turn right until reaching another small cliff, which you follow to the right along its base until reaching the mouth of the cavity. This is located about 75 metres in a straight line from Carrer Camí de Sòcies.
