Characteristics

Location

On the western side of Sant Martí Sarroca begins the path that within a few metres leads to Can Carbó and the font de la Salut. Once past it and heading towards the masia de l'Artiga, at the first bend a small path branches off to the right that in a few minutes leads us to the caves.
