Large rock shelter in conglomerates at Gandesa, 32 metres wide by 5 metres deep, opened along a bedding plane.

Characteristics

Location

Shortly after leaving Gandesa in the direction of el Pinell de Brai, the road passes through the coll de la Font. Here, on the right, the track or path of the Mas d'en Sunyer begins. Once at the farmhouse (in ruins), one must continue towards the NW through some cultivated fields until reaching the first outcrops of conglomerates, where the rock shelter is located. Approximate coordinates.
