Caratteristiche

Località

We will set out from the village of Vilabella via the municipal sports area, towards the carrerada del Molinot; this track will take us to the mas d'en Gatell, very close to the bed of the river Gaià.

Here we will take a path on the left that leads us below the Roques Planes d'en Gatell; the path passes below a rocky escarpment with overhangs that will lead us to the balma del Pont de la Foradada.
