Large rock shelter 9 metres deep at the Juncosa de Montmell.

Caratteristiche

Località

From the Puig de la Cova, where the track coming from the coll d'Arca arrives, we will head NW and then turn towards the W, following the small crag (1-2 metres) that overlooks the right hydrographic slope of the valley that opens at our feet. When we have descended about 80 metres of elevation gain, we will find a path marked with red paint and cairns; this path comes from the Puig de la Cova, but there is a section, where it skirts the valley, that is quite lost. Once the path is found, you only have to follow it until you reach the cave.
