Caratteristiche

Località

It is found in the area known as the Costa dels Sants. From the village of l'Ametlla del Montsec, belonging to the municipality of Camarasa, we will go up along the barranc de Barreta, which is a tributary of the barranc de Canaril, until we find on the right, as we ascend, a scree slope; it must be ascended until reaching a group of holm oaks that are about 15 metres before reaching the top of the scree slope. About 25 metres to the left, that is to the W, of the group of holm oaks is the cave, on the ground and covered by a savin. Approximate coordinates.
