Event Details

***UPDATE***
Due to the new measures around the corona virus, we will cancel all of our community walks from 16th of March for the next 14 days.

Are you ready for THE BIG ONE?

This 18k walk offers spectacular views of Salinas & Formentera to the south, plus Sant Josep & Sant Antoni to the west – you will see the island from a completely different angle! Together with Donna we start the walk on a stunning forest path and gradually climb up through the unspoiled valley behind San Jordi to a Trig Point at 400m, the highest point of the walk.

We will pass a number of cal ovens, natural wells, a shepherd’s shelter and an abandoned ancient finca. We will also pass a natural pond which has recently been built as part of a project to reintroduce the Balearic green toad (calápet), from tadpoles brought over from Mallorca.
Bring plenty of snacks, a good picnic lunch, 3 liters of water, loads of energy and smiles and lets get those legs walking!

DATE & TIME:
Friday 27th March – 10.00h

MEETING POINT:
We meet on the outskirts of San Jordi, close to Ibiza Club de Campo. The entrance to a forest path on Carrer del Pica-Soques, San Jordi. The entrance is marked by a number of large boulders on the side of the road. You can park in the surroundings of the meeting point.
