Itinerary

Imagine traversing Mallorca’s Sierra de Tramontana, where soaring limestone peaks meet olive-terraced valleys and historic monasteries. The 'Majorca Hike: Sierras & Monasteries' is an 8-day self-guided walking trip ideal for travelers with a passion for both nature and culture. From Palma to the scenic heart of Mallorca, this tour package guides you through the island’s most captivating routes, including the dramatic “Archduke’s trail” above Valldemossa and the Pilgrims’ Way climbing through rugged gorges.

The itinerary highlights spectacular viewpoints—such as Puig Roig and Massanella peak—alongside tranquil villages like Soller and Deia, renowned for their stone architecture and vibrant flowers. Bird enthusiasts may spot the elusive European Black Vulture or Eleonora’s Falcon circling the cliffs. Between invigorating hikes, you’ll have the chance to ride vintage trams and railways, visit the iconic Lluc monastery, or relax by the Mediterranean with a boat trip to Sa Calobra.

Accommodations are thoughtfully chosen for comfort and location, placing you in charming towns and peaceful monasteries that reflect the true spirit of Majorca. Meals and transfers are arranged for a seamless experience, allowing you to focus on the beauty and diversity of the landscape.

The unique selling point of this walking tour is its blend of natural wonders and cultural immersion. For those who appreciate moderate trekking with enriching historical and ecological encounters, this journey through Majorca’s sierras and monasteries promises an unforgettable Mediterranean adventure.

day 1Arrive Santuari de Lluc Monastery

The Santuari de Lluc monastery and pilgrimage site is located in north-west Majorca. It is situated in a basin at 525m and is surrounded by a number of high mountains including Puig de Massanella and Puig Tomir. The sanctuary was founded in the 13th century after a Moorish shepherd found a statue of the Virgin Mary on the site where the monastery was later erected. Lluc is considered to be the most important pilgrimage site on Majorca. There is choral singing in the monastery church at 19:30 on most evenings, which guests can attend.

Accommodation

Your first three nights of this walking holiday are spent in well-furnished rooms with ensuite facilities. Clean sheets are provided but the monastic custom is that you make up your own beds. Rooms look either inwards over a peaceful courtyard or outwards to the surrounding thickly forested mountains. The Monastery clock is silent after 10pm. Meals are taken at an adjacent restaurant. The cuisine will be distinctively Mallorcan although with international overtones.

The booking porocess was easy, and customer service was responsive. I contacted 4 companies about the tour I was interested in. Two of the companies I contacted didn't answer me at all. One of them was basically a chatbot that said "do it yourself." Only bookmundi had human agents to help.
