Around Capdepera

Ready to embark on a getaway where the Mediterranean is your constant companion? From the moment you set off from Cala Moll, let yourself be carried away by the waves lapping against the rocks, while the path reveals pearly coves and cliffs bathed in light.

You will first pass through the secret coves of Na Tocanera, a refuge for seagulls and a treasure trove of sea scents, before the panoramic views open up onto the rugged headlands of Capdepera. Finally, this coastal loop ends in Provensals, with its pastel-coloured streets and warm atmosphere, in beauty and serenity.

We did the circular route in the opposite direction and it was definitely much better.
The section before the castle is a country walk. The most difficult part is crossing the forest.
However, the arrival at the castle is breathtaking, the visit is very interesting, and the return via Capdepera and the coast (shortened route) is superb!

A beautiful, varied hike with some tricky sections between points 1 and 2. The blue markings are very useful for finding the best route.
Be careful at CAPDEPERA Castle to turn left and take the small, inconspicuous path that climbs up alongside the castle wall.
