Location

On the BV-2411 road that goes from Olesa de Bonesvalls to Avinyonet del Penedès, in the area of the coll de Garró. After approximately 600 metres past km 24 we find the access track to the can Ràfols dels Caus farmhouse, very well signposted, as they are important wineries. This path forks right at the start; we will take the right-hand one, and after about 100 metres, we will descend on foot along the right-hand slope of the torrent de coll de Garró and the small cliff, where we will easily find these cavities.
