Camí de Cavalls -3

Cala en Porter to Parking at Playa Binisafúller – 11th April 2026

Another short day today, it being the third and usually the day my body gives up waiting for my aged metabolism to kick in and start helping.
It was a pleasant twenty degrees and mostly overcast which always helps. This stage was supposed to be along the coast, which didn’t happen, as I ended up trekking inland across many limestone gullies then down to the sea at the end.

Up the hill in Cala en Porter past all the busy restaurants. This little town seems well full of f’ing English even in the off season.
Up the old mud covered broken limestone landscape so reminiscent of Camí de Ronda in mainland Spain.
Up and down into the next gully. This one has a big cave.
Young, coppiced ash trees and a camp fire all ready for the hunters return.
A nice track for a bit through abandoned fields. Not much in the way of agriculture around.
But then an old majestic house and its surrounding finca suggest that was not always the case.
Binisafúller approaches but still a painful mile to go.

Tomorrow I start on the difficult northern coast hilly sections. Cooler temperatures and rain is the outlook so, better? We shall see.
