That's one scary roundabout, an excellent spot for a nervous breakdown. It wouldn't be too bad if all the drivers knew the rules for approaching/leaving roundabouts....Expect the unexpected.

Indeed. The Arc de Tromphe of Murcia...whoever thought that was a good idea when the Spanish adopt the outer lane regardless is an optimistic street planner. Thankfully the plethora of traffic lights at least means you’re rarely going around it at anything more than walking speed.


Anyway, let’s not scare the OP. It’s easy enough, just take your time. Coming back it’s just a case of a somewhat convoluted u-turn involving a slip road and a set of lights across to another slip road the other side to just bring you back on yourself. Don’t fret, leave the radio off and the sat nav on, and as I always say to my slightly nervous driving partner, worse that happens is you miss a turn and have to travel a short distance in the wrong direction.
