The well-marked hiking trails through the northern part of Mallorca on the "Trans Tramuntana" hiking tour are sure to captivate you. Hikers are drawn to this serene side of the largest Balearic island, where the landscape boasts untamed expanses of grass and rock. This walking holiday follows pilgrimage routes inland, unveiling a side of Majorca that you may not have experienced before.

Known as 'La Luminosa' in Spanish, Mallorca (or Majorca) reveals its hidden treasures, showcasing its best features. Explore the peaceful heart of Mallorca, the rugged Serra de Tramuntana, with trails that wind over rocky terrain and past sun-drenched oak trees. Traverse olive groves to reach picturesque villages adorned with manor houses and castles. Along the way, you'll be treated to magnificent views of the sea and small islands. The idyllic coastal villages offer the perfect blend of sun, beaches, sea, and relaxation, making them a highlight of your journey.

Details about the walking holiday on the Serra de Tramuntana

The Serra de Tramuntana in the northwest of the island of Mallorca is both the path and the destination of the hiking tour. The mountain range has wonderful hiking trails through original vegetation and intact nature.

Highlights of the Majorca Tramuntana walking tour
