Location

Beside the Mas de l'Estadella. From km 6.2 of the TV-3111 road a track heads west towards the Mas de l'Estadella; shortly before reaching it a torrent is crossed. Following its streambed downstream one reaches the area known as les Obagues, where on its left slope and at the foot of a crag the rock shelter is found. Approximate coordinates.
