Description
Morphology
The third of the rock shelters has a base of 10 x 3 m with an average height of 2 m. It has a large block and, beside it, small ones, which have fallen from the ceiling. We will also note a narrow, low and long gallery that enters the wall of the cingle.
Hydrology
From the second to the third rock shelter, there is an exposed passage at the foot of the crag and when it rains the water trickles down making a dangerous passage.
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 it has 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 crag and with a short scramble of 3 m we will climb these rock shelters, in about 5 minutes.
History
Known since time immemorial.
