Get to
 
"It's a place easy to get to"

"Es un sitio fácil para llegar" / Es un sitio al que es fácil de llegar"

¿Cómo se lo dice?

Gracias

You might notice that "It's a place easy to get to" = "It's a place [that is] easy to get to". English sometimes allows omitting the relative pronoun "that"; Spanish NEVER omits relative pronouns.

You may find it helpful to consider whether an English sentence has a place where you could include "that" without changing the meaning. If it does, then usually a Spanish translation will require a relative pronoun.

I agree with wrholt.
