Site with rock paintings in el Perelló (Baix Ebre), known as Cabrafeixet or Cabra Feixet.

Characteristics

Location

From the TV-3022 road from el Perelló to Rasquera, we enter via a track on the left, at approximately Km 7.5. Signposted, the first stretch asphalted, we take a branch track on the left, now dirt until the end where there is the parking area.

From the parking area, on the right side of the ravine, starts the path that in ten minutes leaves us in front of the grille of the rock paintings of Cabrafeixet.
