Characteristics

Location

Leaving the Granadella along the C-233 road towards the Soleràs, on reaching kilometre 30.9 we will follow a track on the right that is the camí de la Vall de l'Oliver; follow it for approximately 1.5 kilometres; when the track makes a marked bend to the right, leave the vehicle and head to the left until reaching the cave.
