Caratteristiche

Località

From the village of Àger, via a turn-off from the paved track that climbs to the Montsec d'Ares at the height of the Montsec de Gabrieló, one reaches the corral del Xixí, on the Pla de l'Escumó. From this point one goes to the corral del Camperol and, standing at its door, one continues in a W direction until reaching the cliff; the cave is at the foot of this cliff and from this point it is not accessible from above. From l'Ametlla de Montsec it is one hour away in a N direction. Approximate coordinates.
