A rock shelter at la Granadella, 43 metres wide and 6 metres deep, with difficult access.

Characteristics

Location

Leaving la Granadella along the C-242 road towards Bellaguarda, after kilometre 13, we find a track on the right which we follow, we pass near a large pond, we leave paths on either side, and when we have gone 1.7 km we find a fork on the right which we follow for 250 metres. The rock shelter is about 65 metres from the path in a straight line, and about 30 metres below in a southerly direction.
