Mallorca is one of our favorite destinations in Europe. Located in the western Mediterranean Sea off the coast of Spain, it is a bio-diverse island with gorgeous tree-lined hillsides, beautiful Mediterranean seascapes, sprawling olive plantations, and quaint hillside villages. We know it well enough to have our favorite hikes and hideaways.
Additionally- this trip is a culinary DELIGHT. The food is one of the highlights of the trip, as we have private chefs create delicious meals of paella and more tapas than you can eat! Food, wine, scenery- Take a hiking holiday and see (and taste) it all!
FLIGHTS
You are responsible for booking your own flight into Palma Mallorca International (PMI). We HIGHLY recommend arriving a day or two early, as this will give you time to adjust to the time change, explore the beautiful city of Palma and allow for any delays/luggage issues during your trans-Atlantic journey. Note that flights form the US to Europe are typically overnight, meaning you will arrive the day after your departure date (i.e. If you depart the US on October 16, you will arrive in Palma on October 17). We will make airport pick-ups and set a city rendezvous point for 2:30p on October 18- please plan accordingly.
Please plan your departures on October 24th for mid-morning (10am) or later. We will provide airport transfers to PMI.

DAILY ITINERARY
Mallorca is a Spanish island in the Mediterranean - a warm and welcoming paradise with abundant sunshine, diverse scenery, and an endless list of things to see and do. Most visitors to Mallorca are here to stroll the beach, sunbathe, eat great food and drink refreshing cocktails. Of course, we do all that – but we do so much more. Come along for incredible hiking across ancient routes in the Serra de Tramuntana mountain range, coastal cruising, tasting tours, market foraging and more! All that, with plenty of time to relax and enjoy... It's a Hiking HOLIDAY- que bueno!
Day 1- Arrival Day
Plan to arrive in Palma de Mallorca (PMI) by early afternoon (2p-ish). We’ll meet you at the airport, then take you to our private villa at the impressive estate of Finca Biniforani Nou for our Welcome Dinner- piles of paella prepared by a private chef!
NOTE: We HIGHLY recommend arriving in Palma a day or two early- it is definitely worth spending some time in this beautiful city. Wrapped around an expansive harbor, this ancient and enduring city is a charmer, dating back to the 13th-century Christian Conquest of the island. Start your wandering at the impressive Cathedral de Santa Maria. From there you will be drawn into medieval streets lined with galleries, restaurants, artisan studios and aristocratic townhouses. On Arrival Day, you can enjoy a leisurely lunch on a vibrant public square while waiting for your F4A guides to pick you up at a central spot in the afternoon.

Day 2
Today’s Hike: One-Way Coastal Hike with Boat Return
Route: Mirador de ses Barques to Cala Tuent
Distance: 6.5 miles / 1,210’ Elevation Gain
Difficulty: Moderately Strenuous
We don’t want to call favorites - but it is hard to beat a dramatic coastal hike to a unspoiled beach… with a boat ride back! Starting from a viewpoint high above Port de Sóller, we follow an enchanting route through farms and forests with a stop for lunch (and perhaps sangria) at Es Vergeret restaurant (lunch is on F4A!). We’ll have just a few more minutes of walking after lunch before reaching the beach at Cala Tuent and boarding an hour-long coastal boat tour bound for Port de Sóller- where we can stroll beachfront shops, restaurants and bars.
Upon our return to the villa, we’ll have an easy dinner of tapas and pinchos.
Day 3
Today's Hike: Mountain views in Esporles
Distance: 4-6 miles
Difficulty: Moderate
Today, your guides will select another gorgeous hike in the hills of Mallorca based on weather and trail conditions. Expect more of the same- stunning views. beautiful vistas and great hiking. If time allows, we may make a stop in the pretty town of Esporles.
After the hike, we'll head towards a place that is always a favorite... the Bodega Son Puig. It is a rare privilege to visit this family-owned winery, operating out of a stately centuries-old manor house set among acres of vineyards and gardens. We’ll meet Isabel, our hostess and member of the wine-making family. She will proudly lead us on a private tour, telling us of the interesting history and workings of the estate, followed by generous tasting of their wines accompanied by plentiful tapas.
(You may purchase wine here if you like- it is a perfect place to box a few bottles up for home!)
Completing our tour and tasting, we’ll return to the villa for a relaxing evening. After the heavy tapas at Bodega Son Puig, light snacks will be available for anyone who might get hungry back at the villa.
Day 4
Today’s Hike: Flora, Fauna & History
Route: Cumbre de Dragonera Island
Distance: 5.3 miles / 1,187’ Elevation Gain
Difficulty: Moderate
This morning, we'll meet up with a local naturalist who will guide us on a private and personalized trip through a remote Natural Park. By remote, we mean it's an island accessible only by boat. Once on the Island, we'll hike our way to the highest point where stands the ruins of an old watch tower and lighthouse. Along the way, our guide will share the history of the site, and highlight the unique flora and fauna of this unspoiled area.
Dinner tonight will be prepared by our chef- another delicious meal on the terrace at the villa!
Day 5
After breakfast at the villa, we’ll drive north to Old Pollença- a historic town with incredible Old World charm. Accompanied by our local guide (who grew up in the town), we'll explore its narrow alleys, eclectic shops, chic galleries and quaint cafés tucked away on cobblestone streets and squares. After the tour, we'll enjoy a traditional Mallorcan lunch at our guide's favorite local restaurant- lunch is on F4A!
After lunch, we’re off to the spiritual heart of the island- the beautiful Lluc Monastery. Dating to the 13th Century, Lluc is a profoundly meaningful place to Mallorquins. It is surrounded by stunning mountain scenery and an extensive network of pilgrimage pathways that for centuries have drawn followers and the faithful to the site. Today, there are beautiful gardens, ancient forests and fantastical rock formations for us to explore along these routes.
This evening, we’ll make a fresh and light dinner at the villa.

Today’s Hike: The Archduke’s Estate
Route: Port de Valldemossa to Caló de S’Estaca
Distance: 5.9 miles / 1,266’ Elevation Gain

The drive alone is a thrill. A steep narrow road with switchbacks leads us to the Port de Valldemossa where this hike begins. From there we follow a moderate footpath along the coast towards a tiny fishing village turned summer hideaway, and through the former estate of Austrian Archduke Ludwig Salvator who, at the end of the 19th Century had a grand country house built with sweeping seaside views. Today, this estate belongs to American film stars Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones. We’ll rest our feet- and maybe take a dip in the crystal clear and blue bay of Caló de s’Estaca- before returning to Port de Valldemossa for lunch on the waterfront. On the drive back, we can stop and explore the village of Valldemossa, or head back to the villa for a relaxing afternoon by the pool. A chef-catered celebratory Finale Dinner awaits us this evening.
