Spanish term or phrase: la nava de los Naps de Dalt
Hi everyone,

This appears in an article promoting El Bruc (a village in Catalunya) as a tourist destination.

Destaca la ruta a pie PR-C 78, que entra en el parque natural por Can Magaña, continúa por el collado de Guirló, el refugio Vicenç Barbé, ***la nava de los Naps de Dalt***, el torrente de Migdia, el Camell de Sant Jeroni y baja por el camino de los Francesos hasta la iglesia de Santa Maña del Bruc

All suggestions are welcome.

Kind regards,

Jack
