The route follows along the river bed of the Barranc de L'infern in its last sector of entrance into the sea. Few meters away will take to discover a small crystal and isolated Cove which can only be reached by this route or by sea; it is the cala dels Testos. Going through the stony path, on the left side, Morro Falqui is presenting itself majestically. A few more steps and you will see the small cala dels Testos just before the last descent.
At that point begin the three difficult sections where we will have to help of ropes to go down or up. Between the second and third rope we continue a path to the left, where we will find in a few metres the Cova dels Testos, a viewpoint to the south coast.
