Characteristics

Location

From the TV-3111 road, about 300 m before reaching the village of Llaberia, a track leaves to the right heading NW that leads to the Tivissa - Llaberia weather radar; before that, at the Coll dels Colivassos, there is an esplanade to leave the vehicle.

From the Coll dels Colivassos a path heading east passes by the Font del Bonic, then towards the Punta de Fornell; near this point, the path takes a southerly direction to the Coll de Mont-redon, where a fork to the right leads to el Rovelló; before reaching el Rovelló the fissure appears.
