San Antonio Church
The church of San Antonio dates back to the 14th century, however like many other churches, only some of the original building remains.
Santa Gertrudis Circular - Beginner/Intermediate Route
A great circular route that can only be accessed on two wheels
Taking in some of the island's cross country biking trails this is a beautiful way to explore the interior of the island.
Starting from San Antonio this route is fairly short but takes in some tricky sections of trail. If you don't feel confident to tackle them on your bike then you can always walk them! You travel along paved tracks, small paths, through wooded areas and through small towns.
What to bring
As always on a bike ride you should ensure you have enough water, some snacks and plenty of suncream.
What to see
As part of the route you will make a breathtaking descent to the beautiful Buscastell Valley, following a very steep and difficult cross-country biking trail that ends at a stream fed by the es Broll springs. Stunning!
