Description

Morphology

It has dimensions of 5 x 8 m at the base with an average height of a metre and a half, with a step in the middle and a window through which the second chamber can be seen.

Progression

To reach it we will start from the path that goes from the Pont Quebradís to the Torre de la Corriu, and once we have crossed the torrent de cal Pelegrí, about 50 m ahead, at the spot where there is a view of the valley of Vilacireres, coinciding with a large block of conglomerate rock on the right of the path with an identifying sign of the path, we will go up through the middle of the forest in a north-westerly direction until we reach the foot of the cliff and with a short scramble of 3 m we will climb these shelters, in about 5 minutes.

History

Known since time immemorial.
