Location

Leaving Noves de Segre, we will cross the river of La Guardia by the old bridge that linked that village with Organyà, we will follow the track to a sharp bend to the right where, in the middle of the bend and on the left-hand side, a path comes off; we will finish the bend and right beside the track we find the mouth of the cavity, which is next to the cova NS-2.
