A worked rock shelter at la Granadella, 52 metres wide and 14 metres deep, with collapsed dry-stone walls.

Characteristics

Location

Leaving la Granadella on the C-233 road towards Bovera, after kilometre 18 we find on the right a track leading to the mas del Gori; after travelling 840 metres and 200 metres before reaching the mas, we find a fork to the right that after a few metres ends at some cultivated fields. From behind the field a track emerges almost in a N direction that in 180 metres takes us to la Cova nº 1 del Gori.
