A rock shelter with a corral in Alcanar (Montsià), with an old dry-stone wall that enclosed the livestock.

Characteristics

Location

From Sant Carles de la Ràpita you must take the track known as Camí de l'Aiguassera (de la Gossera, according to other maps), which crosses the N-340 and continues among crops beside the ravine of the same name. When the path begins to climb toward the Cingle Roig, shortly after the caseta de la Santa, on the right a footpath that descends toward the ravine leads to the cavity.

Description

Morphology

A rock shelter of regular dimensions. We do not have a survey and therefore do not know the specific dimensions of the cavity.

Other details

An old dry-stone wall must have served to enclose the livestock inside the rock shelter.

History

Certainly known for a long time by the good connoisseurs of the Montsià.
