Majorca, away from the tourist hotspots, boasts a multitude of charming places waiting to be explored. Nestled in tranquil settings, one stylish 'Finca' (country house) follows another, many of which come complete with inviting swimming pools in their gardens.

Prepare to be captivated by a week filled with hiking adventures along enchanting routes, along secluded trails amidst marvellous natural landscapes. Stylish and cozy Finca-hotels promise rejuvenating nights, and their garden pools and serene corners offer a perfect escape from everyday life. In the evenings, savour the delights of typical Mallorquin cuisine in a comfortable atmosphere. This hiking tour beautifully showcases the island's diversity in the sun.

On the one hand, you'll discover the sparsely populated north, offering bewitching coastal views and turquoise bays. On the other, the rugged "Serra de Traumenta" might make you feel like you're in the Alps. The delightful village of Orient will enchant you with its apple, almond, and olive orchards, as well as grazing flocks of sheep. Throughout your journey, expect dreamlike panoramic views of the stunning west coast and the Tramuntana mountains until you reach the hiking paradise of Sóller.

Itinerary

Located at the foot of the Serra de Tramuntana, a typical Majorcan town, Pollença, awaits you. You can stroll through the narrow streets of the old town, drink a "Café con Leche" in the Plaza Mayor or walk the cypress-lined hills and enjoy the panoramic view.

One of Majorca's "walking classics" is a tour of the La Victòria peninsula, which lies between the Bay of Pollença and Alcúdia. The route leads along the shoreline and up to a dreamy peak. A winding path with panoramic views and the opportunity to swim in the turquoise-blue bay of Coll Baix takes you back through the rolling hills to Alcúdia.

Short transfer to the Cuber Reservoir. An interesting landscape of tall grass, striking rocks and stony paths lie before you today. As you walk through the impressive Serra de Tramuntana, let your eyes wander over the sunny cliffs and fertile valleys at your feet. Through the Coma Sema estate, once one of the largest olive growers on the island, you reach the magical Orient Valley.

Today, exploring the Orient Valley, or Mallorca's Orchard, is on the agenda. The Burgberg is visible from afar on your way over the Coll d'Orient. Through holm oak forests and with a view of the picturesque landscape, you will walk towards Castell d`Alaro, a place of pilgrimage with a museum. On the way back you should definitely taste the specialities of Finca Es Verger.

On lonely paths, you leave Orient through a densely wooded mountain area with rocks on the northwest side. Hike to one of the peaks, the Penyals d`Honor, on your route towards Bunyola. Once at the top you have a panoramic view of the island and the bay of Palma. From Bunyola, take the “Red Lightning” tram to Sóller.

Transfer to the artist town of Deia, the jewel of the west coast. In the bay of Deia, your hike starts along the rocky coast and up to the romantic postal route to Sóller. In the background, the impressive coastal landscape will enchant you. A visit to an old oil mill, freshly squeezed orange juice and the path through countless olive groves round off this beautiful day.

Departure from Soller or spend extra nights in the city or surrounding region.
