At this the road is not paved anymore, and after this the road starts looking down. Take this road, and after on hundred meters you\u2019ll find a road on your right with the indication for Roca Ghiesa. Take it and go on for 400 meters until the point where the road ends, and you\u2019ll have to take a path in the middle of the forest, marked in white and red.
