Majorca Hike: Sierras & Monasteries

Maps were excellent; instructions were clear; planning was well done.

A great way to explore the mountain trails of Majorca while staying in atmospheric accommodations. All the transfers worked seamlessly - what a wonderful trip.

We stayed in lovely villages and the walks were all of a good length for us. The paths were quiet and the weather was good.

I chose this walking package as a 30th anniversary trip after reading a travel photography book about Mallorca when 12 years old - so it's been a dream of mine ever since, and Mallorca was everything I hoped it would be! I liked that this package offered a solo walking experience but with detailed notes and maps as guides. The moderate-challenging rating is accurate, as there are options to do paths that are both easy and challenging. We like the moderately challenging routes so that's what we chose. The accommodations were excellent - clean, unique, with wonderful service and breakfasts. We arrived early on a Friday and chose a shorter walk for that day, so we actually got 3 walking options in at Lluc. What I loved about the trip was that each hike was different and challenging in various ways. It included woodlands, agricultural areas, craggy mountains, coastal terrains and enough charming stone villages, plus goats (in trees). We used a combination of the GPS maps and the physical notes, and there was only one tricky spot where the GPS seemed to diverge from the notes and we ended up on private, locked property. I did tell the company about that problem. I hope to visit Mallorca again and I am now interested in other walking packages offered by the company.
