Characteristics

Location

On the C-233 road from La Granadella to Soleràs, once past the chapel of Sant Antoni and just after kilometre 24, follow the track on the right, which is the camí de les Fonts dels Caus; it follows the line of the wind turbines. After 600 metres we will turn left and follow the main track for 1900 metres to the mas del Pomissol, which we will leave on the left; from there we will continue on foot along the bottom of the valley for 300 metres; the rock shelter is on our left on the other side of the valley, about 200 metres away, crossing the cultivated fields; the entrance is easily visible.
