Characteristics

Location

From Torrelles de Llobregat you must go to the Can Güell residential development and follow Quarta Avinguda to the end. Follow the track taking all the turnings to the right until reaching an electricity pylon. Continue along a dirt path that descends steeply and continues in steps in the rocky area. On reaching a small col you must cross it and a few metres to the right is la Foradada nº 1 and to the left we will find nº 2.
