Itinerary description
Maybe the best views of Torrent de Pareis / S'Entreforc.
This difficult route starts at 'Nu de sa Corbata' / road to sa Calobra. High grass and an overall dense vegetation make it very hard to find and follow this old path. Even with a good GPS the orientation can be challenging. Some old stone piles mark the way but most of them have become invisible over time. Also there are many deep holes in the karst that are sometimes almost invisible because of being covered with grass. Several parts of the route require some climbing as well. These climbs can be very difficult - depending on personal skills and experience. The karstic rocks are very sharp and destructive.
Finally the natural viewpoint 'Cingle des Niu des Voltor' rewards with spectacular views of Torrent de Pareis, Torrent de Lluc and S'Entreforc.
The way back to the parking of ‘Nu de sa Corbata’ leads over the summit of Moleta de Cal Reis.
Only for very experienced hikers - who know this type of terrain - and the region.
Best to explore together with people who have local knowledge.
