Characteristics

Location

After Campdevànol in the direction of Ribes de Freser, just past the colònia Herand, we will find on the left the Pont de la Cabreta, where we will leave the vehicle.

We will cross the bridge and follow the path that climbs to the old Carbur factory; just as we cross the small canal tunnel, we will have to climb up the mountain following a power line that will remain on our right, leaving the water canal below us. Continuing in a N direction, we will have to head for the crags in front of us; we will follow the crags through a dense bocs where we will keep finding climbing routes, until we reach below the cave entrance.
