Caratteristiche

Località

Located in el Bruc. From carrer de les Escoles, which crosses the torrent de l'Illa and climbs up to carrer de la Parròquia, you must go to the left and continue straight, ignoring the turnings to the right and left. After 1200 metres, leave the car in a small esplanade beside an olive grove. Continue along the track in a N direction and after a few metres take the turning to the right, which soon becomes a path. Pass near el Timbaler and continue parallel to the cliff until reaching the bed of the torrent dels Pallers, where the cave is easily found, at the place called la Raconada. The walk is a little more than 900 metres. At the point where the rock shelter is located, the climbing area begins, with a multitude of routes, known as el Vermell del Xincarró.
