Caratteristiche

Località

From the village of Sarral we will head to the hermitage and recreational area of the Sants Metges; here we will find signposts for the routes to access the caves. To go to the cova del Cano we will take the track that leaves from behind the hermitage in an E direction; the track climbs up the right hydrographic slope of the barranc de la Solana; after a long stretch of track we will reach a crossroads in the middle of a bend; we will follow the left-hand one; the track makes a series of zigzags uphill until reaching a new crossroads; we will follow the left-hand track until reaching the ruins of the mas del Cano; here we will find signs to go to the cave; we will need to cross the field in front of the mas, where on the other side there is a signpost; from here we will follow the path that will lead us to the cova del Cano.
