Hiking in the Northern area of Cap de Creus Natural Park

First Circuit : Path from Mas Rabassers to Portaló and Galladera´s Coves

We will leave from Mas Rabassers de Baix, where we will follow the Rec way to Cala Portaló along a path that runs through this stream, we will go down to the beach where we will swim in the crystal clear waters of this cove of "Sa Mar de Arriba". We will continue the way to Gallader's cove, the initial section zigzags strongly to reach the top and becomes a beaten path between rockrose (cistus monspeliensis), then it goes into the mountain, crosses a headland, and then follows a green trail of grassland, to reach the "Rincón del Bac", an inflection of Cala Galladera's Cove. Accessing the opposite flank implies a certain complication that we will do by going along the slope, we will pass through the stumbling of the two inmates that separates us from Cala Galladera until we reach this corner to make a second bath. During the return, we will have exceptional views of the maritime landscape. In this corner of Galladera, the shear of the schists and the pegmatite morphology acquire the maximum brilliance, apart from a panoramic view of Portaló Island and the Silbato passage, a name that comes from the buzzing of the wind as it passes through the groove.
