Location

Going along the road from Torroella de Montgrí towards l'Estartit, on the left one must access the Torre Vella urbanisation and from its N end take the GR-92 in the direction of Puig Torró. Past the Mustinyà well, on the left there is a turn-off that links up with the so-called Ruta del Vent. Following it always towards the N and shortly before the path turns right one finds els Cisternons, signposted with panel no. 8 of the aforementioned Ruta del Vent. About 200 metres to the S and in the middle of the holm oak is this tiny pit. Approximate coordinates.
