Caratteristiche

Località

By the N-340 road towards Tarragona, past the tower of the Scipios, we will take the first turning on the right. This is the local road TP-2039 which will take us to the village of Pinalbert; before entering the village we will turn right onto a road that leads to the field of the Costa Daurada golf club of Tarragona. Here we will take a dirt track that surrounds the facilities of this golf course. We will leave the car next to an electricity pylon, to go down along a path that leads to the summit of Sant Simplici; here we will turn left to climb, without a path, to the small hills, where the groups of rock shelters are very visible.
