Cova Gran d'en Vila

2.3 km NE of the village of Sant Esteve d'en Bas, on the western foothills of the serra de Marboleny. To get there, we opted for the route we believed to be the shortest, starting from the paved track that leads to the Xenacs recreational area, though it should be noted that the track is closed with a barrier on weekdays and only opens at weekends. The track starts from the right-hand side of the road, about one kilometre before reaching the village of les Preses (coming from the south). On some of the bends the track gains height, and when we are a little less than a kilometre from Xenacs we will have to leave the vehicle to follow an ascending path that leaves from a left-hand bend. Very soon we will reach the ridge, along which runs a ridge path that we will cross in order to descend the other slope. We will not take long to pass by the ruins of the house of Llosassos. From here the path becomes fainter as it enters the wood and we will need to watch out for cairns made with stones. First we will reach the cova d'en Vila. The cova Gran d'en Vila is 65 m away in an almost northerly direction.
