Location

In the western area of the depression known as Coll d'en Gros. It can be reached via the PR-C 96 trail that leaves from Pratdip; upon reaching the Collet de la Terra Blanca, take the path on the left that climbs to the Roca dels Esperits, shortly after the col, and on its left are this cave and another larger one with the same name. Approximate coordinates and not very reliable.
