Caratteristiche

Località

On the GI-511 road from Terrades to Sant Llorenç de la Muga, less than a kilometre from the latter village, and shortly after passing kilometre 4, we find a marked left-hand bend just as it crosses a stream; in the middle of this stream and some 100 metres above the road the cavity opens.

Approximate coordinates to be reviewed.
