Location

Going along the main track of the Mola de Catí you must head towards its NW end. Once past the avenc de Mamelons, the track descends gently and quite a bit further on we find, on the left, a secondary turn-off that descends towards the Canal de Rito. Almost at the same turn-off, a few metres to the right of the track, is the pit.

Entrances

Always verify coordinates and access conditions before setting out.
