Sights & Activities
Cala d'Estellencs
BEACH
From Estellencs, a 1.5km road winds down through terraces of palm trees, citrus orchar-
ds, olives, almonds, cacti, pines and flowers to Cala d'Estellencs, a rocky cove with
bottle green water.
Puig Galatzò
MOUNTAIN
To ascend Puig Galatzò (1052m), a walking trail starts near the Km 97 milestone on the
Ma10 road, about 2.5 km west of Estellencs. It's not easy going, so you'll need good
maps and plenty of water and food. Prepare for a five- to six-hour round trip. An alternat-
ive but easily confused trail leads back down into Estellencs.

cava
