A large rock shelter near Calders, in the Moianès, 46 m long, 9 m deep and 13 m high at its maximum.

Characteristics

Location

We will leave the village of Calders along the B-124 road towards Monistrol de Calders; after the first 400 m we will leave the car in a small widening on our right. From here a small descending path sets off; we will pass beside a monumental holm oak, the Alzina de l'Erola. We will continue descending until the path forks and we will follow the left-hand one, which goes into the valley all the way to the end, where a wall blocks our way. Just below we will find the rock shelter.
