You continue the path to Es Castell and through the streets of the old town that lead you to Maó. Enjoy the bars and the gastronomy, but look also at the special buildings with remains of different cultures. In the port of Maó the southern route of the Camí de Cavalls ends and the camino starts along the north coast…but that might be something for next year?
