A cool salt breeze lifts as the trail peels away from the small village of Es Grau and the wetland opens like a shallow mirror. Reeds whisper; the shallow lagoon dares you to look closer as waders pivot and herons quarter the sky. The route follows the Camí de Cavalls, a historic coastal path that alternates pine-shaded stretches with exposed limestone headlands, ending in the sheltered curve of Sa Torreta Beach.

A cool salt breeze lifts as the trail peels away from the small village of Es Grau and the wetland opens like a shallow mirror. Reeds whisper; the shallow lagoon dares you to look closer as waders pivot and herons quarter the sky. The route follows the Camí de Cavalls, a historic coastal path that alternates pine-shaded stretches with exposed limestone headlands, ending in the sheltered curve of Sa Torreta Beach.
The park is a protected wetland—declared a Special Protection Area for birds—where marshes, dunes and pine groves meet the Mediterranean. Geologically, the shoreline is a mix of sedimentary limestone and dune sand, shaped by sea and wind over millennia. Scattered stone watchtowers mark Menorca’s defensive network from the 17th–18th centuries and add a human layer to a landscape long used for fishing and seasonal grazing.
Guided walks focus on island endemics, migratory birds and the delicate balance of this lagoon system; expect close-up views of reedbeds and coastal scrub, and a likely swim stop at Cala Gominola or Sa Torreta when the light and tide allow. The itinerary covers roughly 9 km with about 170 m positive gain—strenuous only in brief rises—and typically takes around 2½–3 hours moving time.
Practical notes: wear good trail shoes for mixed sand and shale, carry sun protection and at least 1–1.5 L of water, and bring a towel if you plan to swim. Stick to the marked path to protect nesting birds and fragile dune vegetation; local guides will point out species and safe viewpoints along the way.
