The Talaiot de Trebalúger is one of the oldest talaiots on Menorca

The bouldery structure sitting on a rocky outcrop is Talaiot de Trebalúger, one of the oldest talaiots on Menorca, dating from around 1500–100BC. It occupies the site of an earlier structure. The view from the top, barely rising above 50m (165ft), takes in much of south-east Menorca, including parts of Maó, the headland of La Mola, the villages of Trebalúger and Sant Lluís and the airport.

Retrace your steps back into Trebalúger via Carrer de sa Torre and turn left along the Camí de Rafalet, passing a supermarket. Cross the busy Me-6 road to continue along a track, the Camí de Trepucó a Trebalúger. This passes the ‘Menorca Clearance Centre’ and later narrows dramatically. Now little more than a path, the surface is covered with loose lumps of rock for a while. A firmer stretch meanders through fields, eventually reaching a junction with another track. Keep left and join a road on a corner.

Turn right as signposted for Maó and follow the road straight ahead past other roads and tracks around Son Amar. A series of roads is signposted for ‘Poblat de Trepucó’, so follow these one after another, always turning left. However, after passing a ceramics studio, it is also possible to take a short cut up a path on the left, called Camí des Moro, then turn right along a road to reach Trepucó.
