Caratteristiche

Località

We will set out from the village of Sant Llorenç d'Hortons along the BV-2249 road; just as we leave the village, an asphalted track branches off to our right, which will take us to the Can Prats farmhouse. We will turn left before reaching the farmhouse, along a dirt path that passes beside some vineyard fields, and which will bring us to cross the torrent de Can Torre. Here we will leave the car to continue on foot; just below we will find the waterfall and the rock shelter.
