Senetosa curls

The Senetosa area is rich in built heritage: lighthouse, Genoese Tower, which we love to come back to because we all have that feeling that it’s always been there. Sheepfolds, Orii, wheat fields, terraces and low dry-stone walls follow one another all along the route, on these paths through wild, unspoilt landscapes.

🕙 Walking time: 1hr 30mins to 3hrs depending on the loop chosen
