アス・マルカダルでののおすすめツーリングルート

The highest point on the island, at 358 metres and with 360° views over all of Menorca: from the port of Maó to Ciutadella. At the top is the sanctuary of the Mare de Déu del Toro and a small, charming café. The atmosphere is peaceful and spiritual, ideal for a long break. By mountain bike, the climb from Es Mercadal is short but intense, with a constant slope and tight bends; you need to regulate your pace well and not be fooled by the first gentle stretch. Tip: if you can, crown at sunset — the sunset from the summit is one of the most beautiful on the island.

Lovely spot

An English coastal defense tower, built between 1801 and 1802. It is one of the largest English towers in Menorca and differs from other towers of the same period by its reinforced or sloping ground floor and the cylindrical parapet of the upper floor, a molded cantilever that protrudes entirely from the exterior of the tower and rests on corbels. It was restored in 2000 and opened to the public with a simple and meticulous museum system. Visitors can view this defense tower against dangers from the sea, a constant feature of Menorca's history. At the same time, there are many small hiking trails along the rugged coastline, which can be lapped by the crashing surf.

It crosses the northern part of the island, connecting several rural estates, villages and emblematic natural landscapes. This road runs through the biosphere reserve and offers a scenic route with views of fields, forests and the northern coastline, characterized by its rocky and wild terrain. It is a popular route for cycle tourists and hikers, as it allows access to places such as Favàritx, Addaia, Fornells and Cavalleria. Despite being a narrow road with little traffic, you must drive with caution, especially in some sections with bends and unevenness. 🚴‍♂️

The name "Toro" comes from the Latin "turris", meaning tower, in reference to the watchtower that was located on the mountain during medieval times.
