Caratteristiche

Località

On the TV-2401 road from la Bisbal del Penedès towards Juncosa de Montmell, once past kilometre 3 you must turn right towards the farmhouses of les Sansuies. Once you have reached the area of the urbanisation, continue along the main street until the asphalt ends; you must follow the track until you reach a crossroads where there is a padlock blocking the way ahead, right at the height of a rounded construction with a well beside it. Continue along the track to the right, now only suitable for all-terrain vehicles, until you reach the second turning on the right; the track levels out until you reach a kind of small square where you can turn around. Here begins a path that climbs up the right-hand hydrographic slope of the ravine, until you find a turning to the left that climbs the slope up to a cliff known as cova del Garriga, where climbing is practised and where there is a large number of fully equipped climbing routes. Once at the base of the cliff, we will pass in front of the entrances of three caves and we will find the rock shelter at the end of the cliff.
