The Camí de Cavalls (GR-223) is the historic coastal path that encircles the entire island of Menorca: 186 kilometres split into 20 official stages linking unspoilt beaches, cliffs, ravines, watchtowers and lighthouses.

This map shows the full route and each of the 20 stages with its start and end point, distance and difficulty. It can be walked, mountain-biked or run, clockwise or anticlockwise, in full (360°) or in halves (180° north or south).

Most stages are easy or moderate; the northern ones (especially Binimel·là–Els Alocs) are the most demanding due to rocky terrain. The best time to do it is spring (May-June) and autumn (September-October), avoiding the summer heat.
