Coastal and Mountain Hiking on the GR 221

Does fragrant olive groves, far-reaching views of the Mediterranean Sea and Empanadas Mallorquinas sound to your holiday taste? Then you will definitely be captivated by the well-sign-posted hiking trails through the north of Mallorca on the ‘Trans Tramuntana’ hiking trip. Hikers love this quiet side of the largest Balearic island with the wild landscape of grasses and rocks. Part of the hiking holiday leads along inland pilgrimage routes and reveals a Mallorca that you may not yet know!

The Serra de Tramuntana in the northwest of the island of Mallorca is the way and the destination of the hiking trip at the same time. The mountain range has wonderful hiking paths through original vegetation and intact nature. The special thing about this week are the different hikes – once directly on the coast, once on the mountains inland. Get to know Mallorca’s unknown beauty with every new day of hiking!

Itinerary

Day
1
Arrival in Pt. Alcúdia

One of the most beautiful paths stretches between the bay of Pollença and Alcúdia. You follow the coast and climb a stunning rocky peak. On winding paths with incredible panoramic views you cross soft hills back to the historic town Alcúdia and finally to the promenade of Pt. Alcúdia.

Short transfer to Pollença, where you join the historic pilgrim path to Lluc. With the high summits of the Serra de Tramuntana in full view, you walk up onto the pass past Puig Tomir. Shady stone oak forests, orchards and rough meadows compose a varied scenery. Connoisseurs walk through the botanical garden of the monastery.

In the morning transfer to Cuber Reservoir where you join a further stage of the pilgrim path to Lluc. You walk high up into the Serra and on passes down to Lluc. An interesting scenery with high grass, rocks and crossings that resemble high alpine territory lies ahead of you.

The sunny vistas on the steep rock coast and fertile valleys certainly belong to the most marvellous sights Majorca has to offer. Return to monastery Lluc for another overnight stay.

You will walk along the Cuber reservoir to the L’Ofre pass where a superb panoramic view of the Serra de Tramuntana peak is waiting for you. You take the winding path up to the Es Cornador peak where you can enjoy the view into the distance across the coast and to Palma.

On your way to Sóller you will walk along the well-known panoramic path through the Biniaraix gorge, which is one of nicest landscapes in the Tramuntana mountains. You will reach the lively centre of Sóller by walking alongside beautifully scenting orange plantations. By taking the old tram, you will get to the Port de Sóller.

Transfer to the bohemian town Deia, the jewel of the westcoast. You start your tour in the bay of Deia along the rocky coast and up to the romantic mailing rout to Sóller. The backdrop with its impressive coastal scenery will fascinate you. The sightseeing tour of an old oil mill, a freshly squeezed orange juice and the trail through numerous olive orchards will round off your day.

By retro-railway through the valley of oranges into the bustling capital Palma. Stroll through the lively alleyways and to the impressive cathedral before walking along the beach promenade to the Playa de Palma.

Alternatively we recommend a walking tour to Fornalutx, into Mallorca’s most beautiful village. You walk along olive groves, almond trees and fragrant orange groves through the green and fertile valley of Sóller.
