Location

On the left bank of the barranc d'Escarlà, about 100 metres above the streambed and about 3 km from the houses of Escarlà. A large tree in the very middle of the ravine (data from 1985) serves as a reference point where the slope must be climbed. Approximate coordinates, not very precise.
