Location

Driving along the C-153 road, once we reach the coll de Condreu, we will turn off towards the santuari de la Mare de Deu del Far; on reaching the ermita de Santa Anna, we will continue along the road for a further 285 metres, where a track leaves from the right which we will follow for about 90 metres; we will find the cavity on the left of the path, almost opposite the Forat del Fusó.
