Cervià de les Garrigues • Garrigues8m0

A walled rock shelter in Cervià de les Garrigues, known since time immemorial and catalogued by members of ECM Barcelonès in October 2019.

Characteristics

Location

From the N end of Cervià de les Garrigues we will take the path from Cervià to l'Albagés, which runs parallel to the riu de Set. After travelling about 3.3 km we will turn right onto a track. We will soon leave on the right the path leading to the ermita de Santa Maria de les Besses and continue for 140 m. On the right there is an esplanade where we can leave the car. The cave is 30 m from the track, at the end of the esplanade, easy to locate.
