Activities on land

Menorca offers unique opportunities for combining the practice of sport with enjoyment of nature.

Horse-riding is a particularly popular activity, with horse-riding clubs at Maó, Ferreries, and, above all, Ciutadella. Another interesting possibility for combining horse-riding with contemplation of nature are the routes on horseback along country lanes and tracks. Enthusiasts can also enjoy the harness races at the racecourses in Maó and Ciutadella.

The wealth of country lanes and paths offers an extensive variety of routes for cycling and hiking, with programmed, guided outings or unguided waymarked itineraries, one of which passes by the Ca Na Xini rural hotel, for enjoying the island’s natural heritage and landscape or for birdwatching and observing natural habitats.

Another calmer activity is golf. One of the chief attractions of the Son Parc (Es Mercadal) golf course is the climate, with the possibility of playing golf at any time of the year. Its location by the sea, surrounded by nature, enables you to practice this wonderful sport in exquisitely peaceful surroundings, with all the services you could need to make your stay an unforgettable experience.
