Location

On the C-152 road, between Les Preses and Sant Esteve d'en Bas, at kilometre 43.83, we find the left-hand turn-off leading to the Xenacs recreational area (track restricted to the opening hours of the recreational area). From the car park of the recreational area, we walk to the information hut; from its S side a track sets off which we follow for about 170 metres, until reaching a bend where the cavity is signposted.
