Caratteristiche

Località

On the western side of the village of Sant Feliu de Pallerols (Garrotxa), although by a few metres the holes lie within the municipality of Rupit i Pruit (Osona).

The Punxa Filosa area, as it is known by the local people (according to the ICGC: Puig Safilosa), has a flat slope with slight undulations, chaotic in appearance due to the large number of blocks, within a beech forest and slightly inclined above the clot de l'Infern.

Among the multitude of blocks there are numerous entrances to all kinds of different hollows, of which the six that a priori seemed most interesting and accessible were explored. All of them located very close to one another.

Access is via the C-153 road from Rupit to the coll de Condreu, shortly after passing kilometre 35 and at the end of the straight where a large “estelada” is painted, we will turn left to take a track that climbs parallel to the riera de Papalló in a first section, and continue climbing parallel along the torrent de Coma-Serra in a second section, we will always follow the main track until coming out onto a flat area with cultivated fields, we will follow this until reaching a crossroads where an electricity line passes, we will turn left until finding a fence on the track that must be crossed and a little further on we will pass by the estany del Coll which is on the left of the track; we will continue along it until reaching a crossroads, we will follow the right-hand one for 1,100 metres until reaching a new crossroads, we will follow the left-hand one for 200 metres until another crossroads, this time we will follow the right-hand one for 180 metres until reaching the last crossroads, where we will follow the right-hand one for about 125 metres until the track ends.
