Volta a l’Albufereta

This excursion provides the opportunity to see the humid zone of l’albufereta, with two large lakes during most of the year. The landscape comb cultivation with trees, without losing sight of Pollenca Bay and the sea on a clear spring day. Departure and arrival are the same place, Placa de la Porta de Mallorca. It is recommended to go by bike. We must leave Alcudia by the road to Palma, (L’avinguda d’inca), pass the crossroads going to the Port de Pollenca and 20 minutes farther on, to the right, there is an asphalted road, el Cami dels Bracals. We follow this road for 5 or 6kmignoring any lateral roads along the way and pass the first river.

We continue along asphalted road (most of the way we have been going parallel to the coast) and at the end of the road runs slightly closer to the coast. Immediately afterwards it turns away again next to a wider river. Without leaving the river we eventually cross it and join the road that goes along the coast from Pollenca to Alcudia. We turn to the right and are near the sea. After one km we arrive at the Alcudia – Port de Pollenca road which runs alongside the sea. We turn to the right and go back to Alcudia. The coast on the left is very special now although there is not much beach and the albufereta is still to the right. From now on we cannot get lost because we do not leave the road until Alcudia. Be careful of traffic on this part of the journey. At the Marina the road again leaves the sea and carries straight on inland. Shortly afterwards we arrive at Alcudia.
