Picture time with view

One of the most iconic and wild corners of the island, surrounded by lunar landscapes, black rocks and turquoise sea. The black and white lighthouse contrasts with the harsh terrain and the constant wind gives it an air of adventure. By mountain bike, the access road is short but with stony sections and exposed to the sun; it is best to bring water and avoid the central hours of the day. Tip: get there early or at dusk - the light and silence of the place make it seem like another planet.

I recommend trekking equipment, boots in this period sunscreen and sun protection .... also important the swimsuit. on arrival when you arrive at the lighthouse the passage seems to be lunar and then it changes and becomes different but always fascinating and unique. I recommend it as an excursion.

Located at the tip of the cape of the same name, the Favàritx lighthouse is one of the most visited on the island, both for its distinctive white tower, whose silhouette draws a black spiral stripe, and for its rugged natural environment. Surrounded by imposing slate cliffs, in a privileged location, it is really worth getting close to this end of Menorca to see how this lighthouse is different from the others. Built in 1922 with rock from the quarry located nearby, the orography that surrounds Favàritx provides incredible views on both sunny and rainy days, which is why it is not necessary to check the weather forecast to visit it. On the road to Favàritx you can also visit the Cós des Síndic Lake, whose perimeter has been fenced off to best preserve its conservation. This is a beautiful natural pool of great ecological importance, which is only created in the event of strong storms or with rainwater, which is why the panorama offered is not always the same. Thanks to its proximity to the sea, the landscape provides this overall contrast, totally different from that of the other lighthouses on the island. The Favàritx lighthouse can be reached by car, by bike or on foot with a beautiful and long walk. It can also be reached by making a slight detour from the Camí de Cavalls, which runs parallel to this stretch of coast. Near the lighthouse and along the Camí Vell de Favàritx, you can reach the beautiful coves of Presili and Tortuga, two beaches in Menorca that are absolutely not to be missed.

The central talayot is one of the largest on the island

Beautiful Taiolotic site, with beautiful remaining ruins, a "taialot" still present dominating the site and above all a superb "Taula", standing stone!

[end of march 2025] Trail temporarily closed for "heavy roadworks". It might seem ridable at the beginning, coming from Maó in direction of Talatí de Dalt, but after 300-400m, ther is a deep cutting in the middle of the way, with lots of sands and pretty narrow sides to go along! it might be ok with a mountainbike, but not with other bikes, like travel bikes, especially when loaded... Better take the mainroad to go to the Talatí de Dalt 🗿
