About

This shelter was placed on the location of a former airstrip once used by the Republican Air Forces during the Spanish Civil War. The shelter contains two entrances and is in generally good condition. There are also the ruins of the various buildings once used by the air force.

Know Before You Go

Dirty but the easy road to travel. The shelter is in a crop field, so depending on the time of the year it is cultivated and it is not a good idea to step over.
