Location

From Oliana we will head to the Valldan; almost upon arriving there we find a track on the right that leads to the collada del Sàlzer. When the track crosses the torrent del Sàlzer, we must leave the vehicle and go up the left bank of the torrent along the slope, through the middle of the forest, heading N, and without straying too far from the torrent, until reaching the rock wall (about 200 metres approximately) where the large rock shelter is, through which the water of the torrent leaps when it rains.
