Overview

Plenty of 'New' and Updates for our 2013 Editions of Menorca Tour & Trail Super-Durable Map and Walk! Menorca guidebook. We completed our research for our new Walk! Menorca guidebook and Tour & Trail Map in May 2013. While we have lost some walking routes due to access problems the positive changes more than compensate with some very good news for visitors to this 'Gem of the Med'. Ferreries' new dual carriageway bypass will speed you past this notorious bottleneck, while also improving access onto the minor lane that takes us into the spectacular Barranc de Algendar. A completely new ferry port has been built and commissioned south of Ciutadella at Son Oleo with direct access to the town's RC-2 bypass, so eliminating Ciutadella's traffic chaos associated with car ferry arrivals and departures. Out of town there is good news for beach lovers as the previously private 'Pay' car parks have been taken over by the authorities and turned into 'Free' car parks; Cala Macarella, Cala Turqueta, Platja de Son Saurer, and Cala de Algaiarens are the popular beaches to benefit.New large electronic 'Beach Parking' information signs have been installed at the start of the car park access roads to advise users of the available spaces; though not working at May 2013 these should be very useful for everyone visiting these beaches. 'Cami de Cavalls' is the big news for everyone who enjoys exploring Menorca on foot. At last all sections have been completed including comprehensive wayposting and signage. Now it is possible to circumnavigate the whole island on the official 'CdC' trails without ever having any 'access' problems that have dogged many of Menorca's walking trails in the recent past. Cami de Cavalls Guidebook 20 routes to discover Minorca is an impressive guidebook published by the Fundacio Desti Menorca which is available from bookshops on the island for A22. Impressive on background but the book does not have any walking directions or instructions, our Tour & Trail Map combined with the frequent wayposting and signage should keep you on trail through the countryside but the CdC is a tad more difficult to follow through the urban areas. Mao (Mahon) now has a dedicated new bus station just off Placa de s'Esplanade complete with information office.Combined with pedestrianising a number of the central streets this makes exploring the capital an even better experience than it was before. In Ciutadella the bus termini for a number of routes have been moved from the central squares out to a rather anonymous location, so remember your route back to the terminus if arriving by bus. Walk! Menorca new 2013 3rd edition is published alongside our new Menorca Tour & Trail Super-Durable Map. All the routes highlighted in red on the map are included in our new 3rd edition. It is the most comprehensive and up to date walking guidebook for Menorca including gps waypoints for pin-point navigational accuracy on every country walking route. With Walk! Menorca plus Menorca Tour & Trail Super-Durable Map you have everything you need for adventuring on this beautiful 'Gem in the Med' island; don't leave home without them.
