This is a simple route that starts at the Hotel Palladium car park in Playa d’en Bossa and heads towards the Torre de Sal Rossa, better known as the Xanga, where we can see the Roman-era road and its cisterns. From there, we will continue to Rafel Alberti’s refuge cave during the Civil War, an area where different varieties of wild orchids proliferate, and which is known for being the enclave with the highest concentration of this type of flowers on the island. We will then continue to Sant Francesc and reach the ponds of La Salinera. Finally, we will go along the Carreró de Can Blai, next to the vineyards of Bodegas Can Rich, whose wines are characterized by their salty flavour, which is typical of the type of terroir adjoining the sea and which gives the grapes their unique peculiarity. Once we have crossed this area, we continue to des Codolar beach, one of the water supply points for the salt ponds, and we end our walk at the starting point, once we have crossed a stretch of planted areas.
