The Poblat de Trepucó is one of the largest talaiotic settlements in Menorca

A massive, boulder-walled talaiot, Poblat de Trepucó, dominates Trepucó; at least four of these structures were built on this site, which is one of the largest settlements of its type on Menorca. Alongside is a tall T-shaped taula, standing in an enclosure flanked by stone pillars. Also visible are house foundations, and there are other foundations in nearby fields. The whole site was excavated in the 1930s by British archaeologist Margaret Murray.

Walk down the road, the Camí de Trepucó, then decide whether to turn right or left. By turning right along the Camí Verd, the Me-2 road can be reached at the head of Cala Figuera. From there, the earlier steps of the day can be retraced back into the city. Turning left, however, leads down to another junction, where a right turn leads down to a large cemetery at Nostra Senyora de Gràcia. Cross the Me-2 at a roundabout and follow the Carrer de Gràcia straight into Maó. Turning left at the end of this road leads to Plaça Reial, where a right turn leads to Plaça del Carme and Plaça d’Espanya in Maó.
