Caratteristiche

Località

Starting from the road from coll de Jou to Cambrils, we will follow the forest track that descends to Junyent, passing by cal Cavallera, a sign for Roc Falcó, a falcon-breeding facility. We will pass right alongside the large falcon cages, cal cavallera, and continue descending along the new road, until approximately some 2 kilometres at a junction of tracks.

We will continue to the left, along an abandoned track that first descends and then continues level; this was the old neighbourhood path of Cavallera and Junyent before the Roc Falcó.

Before the track begins to climb, on the right, we will see an abandoned track that we will descend as far as the cliff itself. The cave is located below the cliff wall, about 100 metres above the rasa de Junyent, on the right-hand slope. From the forest track to the cave is approximately some 15 minutes on foot.

Coordinates without much precision.
