Itinerary description

Extension to an existing route down to the marina in Sant Carles De La Rapita. Great if you live in or are visiting Sant Carles and have a 'support team' who can drive you to the start point. My phone battery died towards the end of the walk, so I had to stop taking photos. In reality I didn't need to keep the app running as the trail is very well signposted. All you really need is a list of places along the route and each signpost will point you in the right direction.
The only real danger point is crossing the N340 at Sant Carles. This is a busy road and great care should be taken.
