Cala Galdana to Cap d’Artrutx – 20th April 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A long day today. The first few hours of upz an downz and then miles along the coast to Cap d’Artrutx. I felt strong during the climbs, which was unexpected given how tired I was last night. However, by the end the old EIV had returned which is going to make tomorrow a bitch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leaving Cala Galdana and suddenly I am surrounded by French families again struggling up the hills with their beachwear and their lilos and shit. Got to admire them for hiking so far to a beach, though I suspect the trip home with the whining kids is a beaut.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A shady grotto.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This beach is where they are headed – Cala Macarella.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

An attempt at art.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps a better view of it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Back on this rocky, shifty, shitty surface.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The whole southern coast looking back to Punta Prima.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A clearer view of Mallorca today.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cala des Talaier approaching.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

She was walking back and forth and trying to screw with me, I’m sure of it. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
This one is Son Saura and again many French. I think they come here in April to May then disappear when the f’ing English arrive.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

About 100 meters cut through the rock for the stream. I can not fathom it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A Spanish civil war bunker guarding another lonely breach.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Ploughing on, hoping the path will smooth out.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cala Son Vell. Like a lot of these, if you have permission to cross private land and a good 4×4 you can get here.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Far at Cap d’Artrutx and some buildings in sight.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Platja de Son Xoriguer and not a caf\u00e9 or restaurant open for a break.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Tantalisingly closer.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Getting a refresh before the season – looks like.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The ankle breaking stuff again to start tomorrow.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I went a bit far today, but necessary if I’m to finish on schedule. What’s worse, is that I have to go as far tomorrow. Oh! my poor leggies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
