Characteristics

Location

From Santa Eulàlia de Puig-oriol we will follow the BV-4342 road heading S and shortly before km 1 we will find a track on the left which we will follow. After 350 metres we will come out onto a track and continue to the left, in the direction of l'Estrada. One hundred metres before the farmhouse we will leave the car. The shelter is about 15 metres from the track, on our left.
