The Eye of Montgo via Mont Putxol

Taking in various points of interest. The route though a little convoluted is a nice way to approach the eye. Taking in some Molins, a Civil War memorial, sections of woodland. Access into the interior of the cave requires scrambling but is optional. Mainly good level paths, but some are steep, with exposed views and great scenery. Plus, a very convenient cafe at the end.
