Archaeological Walk
Sunday 29th January 2017
This walk is from MÄ¡arr to Manikata accompanied by the archaeologist Dr Keith Buhagiar.
The walk will start from Mġarr centre and go down the valley and walk along the beautiful coast and countryside of Gnejna, Għajn Tuffieħa and Golden Bay all the way to Il-Majjistral Park and ending at ir-Razzett tal-Qasam in Manikata where we will be met by an assortment of local delicacies prepared by the Koperattiva Rurali Manikata.
Along the route, watch towers build by the Knights of St John will be encounter as well as the remains of 2 medieval hamlets and garden plus a water gallery also of that era.
This is not a circular route so there will be a coach waiting at Manikata to take everybody back to MÄ¡arr. The walk is relatively easy as inclines are few and more often than not it will be descending, however the paths are rough so sensible footwear needs to be worn.
