It is a collective tomb built only by inserting stones, without the need for other material.<br \/>\r\nIn the 1950s, inside the Naveta de Tudons, remains of at least 100 people were found along with their belongings and offerings such as: gold, silver, bronze bracelets, bone buttons, ceramics, and more.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;justify&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1629220833797{margin-bottom: 50px !important;}&#8221;]If you are a fan of ancient civilizations, this is a must stop. The entrance to the interior of the Naveta is prohibited for security reasons, but you can admire it from the outside from very close. The entrance costs \u20ac 2 and if you go by car, you can park in the free parking lot located on the side of the road.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1613328433072{margin-top: 50px !important;margin-bottom: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;background-color: #f8f8f8 !important;}&#8221; el_class=&#8221;super_border_radius text-center box_shadow&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1611447788643{padding-top: 0px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1622562418483{margin-bottom: 50px !important;padding-top: 32px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\r\n<h3 class=\"huge sc-c mt-0\">Do you need a car in Menorca?<\/h3>\r\n<p class=\"med\">Make your reservation online with instant confirmation.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"mt-8 med\"><a class=\"button big\" href=\"https:\/\/staging.autosvalls.com\/en\/\">Book<\/a><\/p>\r\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1611447793944{padding-top: 0px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1622561260900{margin-top: 32px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;justify&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1629220373578{margin-bottom: 50px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\r\n<h3 class=\"mt-0\">Hiking route from Punta Nati to Cala Morell<\/h3>\r\n<p>If you enjoy hiking and want to discover the landscapes of the island, then this route is for you. The road that goes from Punta Nati to Cala Morell is section 9 of the Cam\u00ed de Cavalls. This journey is 7 kilometers long and takes approximately 3 hours, although the journey is not easy at all.<\/p>\r\n<p>It is one of the so-called &#8220;dry areas&#8221; of Menorca and this makes the landscape different, dominated by bushy vegetation and shaped by the influence of the &#8220;Tramontana&#8221; wind. The path runs mostly in the cliffs area, so you get beautiful views of the coast and the coves of Menorca.<br \/>\r\nMenorca is the ideal destination if what you want to do is hiking, the island is full of beautiful and different places where you can enjoy a walk in the open air.
