Caratteristiche

Località

About 300 metres before reaching the village of Abella de la Conca, on the left, a track leads to can Xinco and cal Borrell. Shortly before reaching the private entrance of the latter, a turn-off appears on the right with a sign indicating towards Sant Corneli. You pass right by cal Borrell and continue for about 200 metres more to a left-hand bend with a good esplanade where cars can be left. To the NE, a path climbs up until it reaches the track that enters the gorge and, shortly after following it, on the right, a monolith rock appears (Pedra Ficada). We continue along the path for 700 metres where it widens into a track; we will have to keep climbing for about 100 metres more to observe on our right (hydrographic left) the large mouth of the Espluga del Ponsà no. 2.
