About this tour

Celebrate this Spring in a place with Stunning nature, One of Europe’s top-voted trail, beautiful beaches, picturesque villages & more

Mountains, sea and wonderful bliss moments combined with a particularly beautiful, Mediterranean natural backdrop – hiking on Mallorca has a special magic. On our hiking trip along the GR221 hiking trail, you will hike across the sunny Balearic island from Estellencs in the southwest to Port Soller in the North West.

Views onto/from the coast you cannot get enough of, the alpine-like Tramuntana mountains, the citrus fruit in the idyllic Sóller-valley & lots more. Coastal villages such as Deià and Valldemossa are also located en route as well as monasteries, extensive country estates, fincas and renowned coastal towns. Fragrant macchia, evergreen and holly oak forests providing shade, inquisitive sheep and mountain goats accompany you along with a lovely sea breeze and the scent of the many lemon and orange groves on this route of dry stone walls.

How to get to Mallorca?

  • Flying is the fastest way to reach Mallorca (Palma de Mallorca airport), with direct flights from most European cities.
  • If you prefer to reach Mallorca by ferry, there are two ports on the Spanish mainland. These include Denia and Valencia. Ferries take about 5 hours from Denia and 8-9 hours from Valencia. Ferries also run from Barcelona’s port and takes about 7.5 hours.

Fun Facts:

  • The dry stone building technique has been employed since ancient times in Mallorca. The ‘margers’ were the local dry stone wallers and had extensive knowledge and skills. Footpaths, roads, walls, terraces for agricultural land and canals for mountain streams have been created using dry stone walling in the Serra de Tramuntana that you will notice in the GR221 trail.
  • One of the stunning features of Mallorca is the amazingly clear sea with the water being very blue and clear. This phenomenon is by algae on the seabed. Due to these organisms, Mallorca has some of the clearest seawater in the world.
  • Mallorca on average enjoys more than 300 days of sunshine.
