Coves dels Desertors

In the upper part of the western end of the serra del Mill, an east-west mountain alignment whose ridge separates the municipal districts of Sant Julià de Cerdanyola and La Nou de Berguedà, hidden among the crags that face this latter municipality.

From the houses of Malanyeu (la Nou de Berguedà) you must take the track that leads to the masia del Llomà and continue until reaching the Monnell, where we will leave the car. We begin the walk along a path through woodland that will bring us to the Creueta, a good viewpoint where there is a precarious cross made of trunks. The cavity is only a little more than a hundred metres in a straight line from the Creueta, above the cliffs that we have in front of us. Unfortunately, we will have to make a large detour to reach the cave, since access is from the top of the ridges.

From the Creueta we will follow the camí del Mal Pas, which will allow us to reach the ridge of the serra del Mill at a point that is a crossroads of paths. We will take the path along the ridges, heading east. The path runs slightly tilted towards the north side of the ridge (facing Sant Julià de Cerdanyola) and when we pass level with the 1393 m spot height (summit of the Creueta) we must leave it to head towards the cave. From here it is difficult to reach, since there is no path and we will have to trust our intuition and the GPS coordinates. From the path along the ridges, level with the aforementioned spot height, we must look for a passage that allows us to cross to the south side of the ridge and descend down the slope.
