Location

From la Bisbal del Penedès we will head towards the la Pineda de Santa Cristina residential development. We will access it via the road parallel to the C-51 highway, entering via carrer de la Cerdanya, and continue along carrer de la Garrotxa until reaching the junction with carrer de l'Empordà. At this point we will continue to the left until the ermita de Santa Cristina and the Torre Forta de Santa Cristina; the cave is just behind the Tower.
