At the eastern end of the serra de Picancel, one kilometre north of the pla de la Quar and next to the torrent known as the rec dels Vinyals, which runs through the inside of the rock shelter.

Starting from Sant Maurici de la Quar we will continue along the road for about 5 km until reaching the pla de la Quar, where the important farmhouses of Soldevila and Can Pou are located. We leave the car here.

To the west we have the Santuari de la Quar on top of a cliff. From the side of Can Pou we will take a path marked as GR-4. The path descends until it crosses the rec de Can Pou and shortly afterwards we must take a small path on the left that climbs steeply until reaching a ridge and continues now on the other slope in a descending stretch to go in search of the rec dels Vinyals.

Before reaching it, however, we will leave the GR to follow a less worn trail that leaves on the right “against the grain”. Further on the trail becomes wide where it coincides with an old track, now abandoned. This stretch follows the upper part of the cliff where the rock shelter is found, which, in fact, we pass above. Just when the path makes a 90 degree turn to the right we will leave it to follow a faintly marked trail on the left that reaches some rocks that form a kind of small hill. A few metres further on we will find the descending trail that will lead us to the rock shelter, which we will enter at its eastern end.
