Itinerary description
The walk starts outside S'Arraco and traverses the "wild country" to the mirador overlooking Cap Faboiler then round to Sa Trappa.
I would advise doing the walk in the anticlockwise direction as it avoids the terrible climb up to Sa Trappa - instead the climb is tree covered albeit on a rough track. As you come out of the trees the track gets better and eventually as you near the top you start to get views up the coast towards Villamoura.
The track then crosses over the top to reach the mirador above Cap Faboiler. From there it winds it's way along the hillside to reach Sa Trappa where you can drop down to Sa Trappa itself if you feel like more climbing. After that the terrible descent and then a further mile on good roads back to the car park.
The time of 20 mins quoted is totally unrealistic and should be 4 hours 20 mins. A very satisfying walk albeit with a lot of climbing - enjoy.

Indeed it makes more sense to do it clockwise, thanks for the tip! The landscape is really good, the trail is easy to follow, no to long no to short. We had a good time doing it! It’s way more worthy than doing the, well said, terrible climb up to Sa Trappa 😅👍
