Characteristics

Location

The cave is found in the Serrat de la Muga (Gisclareny). The route is long and complicated as there are no paths to facilitate access. You must go to the Cap de Sadorn, from there we will go up the canó de la Muga, from which we will soon make out the large entrance of the SM-3, also known as Bauma gran or Forat de les Ortigues. Above this, going first to the right up a scree slope, and then to the left through a small canyon, we will reach the entrance of the cavity. Approximate coordinates without much precision.
