WHAT HAPPENS
The shape of it
Six sites, 3,000 years
Six emblematic archaeological sites strung between Sencelles and Costitx, walking you from the Naviform period through the Talaiotic and post-Talaiotic eras to the Roman conquest — more than 3,000 years in two or three hours.
Talaiot de Son Fred
A large, well-preserved talaiot at the heart of a Talaiotic-period settlement — one of the standout stops on the route.
Santuari de Son Corró
The post-Talaiotic sanctuary in Costitx where the famous bronze Costitx bulls (els braus de Costitx) were unearthed in the 19th century.
Self-guided with signage
The sites are laid out to be read on your own, with on-site signage, maps and a free interpretive brochure you can download before you set off.
Guided visits to Binifat
The two town councils run periodic guided visits to the talaiots of Binifat and Cascanar, complementing the self-guided route.
