This route offers panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea and rugged coastline. You will walk past grayish sand beaches, impervious cliffs, and coves with amber-colored sand, all while enjoying the clear waters that shift from emerald green to turquoise.
This accessible trail near Teulada is perfect for nature lovers and families, as it doesn't require specialized equipment or advanced hiking experience. The starting points for some routes are conveniently located next to parking lots, making it easy to begin your adventure.

Capo di Malfatano is rich in history, featuring the remains of an old tower and a prominent Spanish tower overlooking the promontory.

Beyond hiking, the sheltered coves and crystal-clear waters are ideal for swimming, snorkeling, and diving, offering a chance to explore a vibrant underwater world.
