Menorca, Baleares
Description
Menorca - or Minorca - is one of the Balearic Islands. It’s popular with sun lovers, who populate the coastal areas near the beaches. But elsewhere the island is quiet. It’s interior is rather arid, mostly flat, with some low hills. The farmland is partly abandoned and generally loosely structured, giving the island its own charm.
Main interest for hikers is the GR223 that circumvents the entire island. This is another very interesting project by the Spanish and Catalans. The aim in this case is to restore an old coastal route and give it to hikers.
