Taking country walks at Easter

We finally did it! After 7 years in Menorca we finally fulfilled our promise to take some country-side walks. Usually when we get to Torret in summer, it is too hot to go hiking but the Easter holiday was perfect! We took advantage of a booklet left by Lieven and Nancy (THANK YOU!) with suggested walking tours using mainly the Cami de Cavalls, the old routes for horses. These routes are spread across the island, so walking opportunities are quite endless going from easy walking to challenging climbs.

The best walk we did led us from Cala en Turqueta to Cala Macarella en Cala Macaralleta. It was a walk of appr. 9 km. The hike brought us alongside cliffs and into the woods. It was quite adventurous but feasible for less fit people (like us ;-) ). The beaches were completely deserted and really beautiful! We also did a more inland hike along farms and typical scenery with lots of wild flowers this time of year.
