About this tour
Spend nine hours traversing Mallorca's quieter corners, from the dramatic cliffs and terraced slopes of the Tramuntana range to the artistic village of Valldemossa and the island's flatlands beyond. You'll walk medieval pathways, eat a full spread of regional dishes at a local table, and discover Bonany Hermitage—a hilltop sanctuary meaningful to islanders for centuries. A pearl factory rounds out the route before your return to Palma.
Highlights
- Westernmost Tramuntana UNESCO ridge with sheer coastal drops
- Es Verger watchtower with panoramic views across terraced farming
- Valldemossa's Moorish alleyways and literary history
- Proper Mallorcan lunch with wines and regional tapas
- Bonany Hermitage: local pilgrimage spot with story-rich grounds
- Pearl factory workshop and production process
What to expect
The day splits into two distinct landscapes. Start in the mountains, where you'll hike ridgelines and visit medieval towers with vistas down to the sea. The terrain is uneven and steep in places, though manageable for most. Valldemossa requires wandering uphill through narrow lanes—wear comfortable shoes. After descending to flatter terrain, you'll sit down to a proper meal with local wines. The afternoon takes you to a working hermitage and a functioning pearl factory, both low-key stops that offer insight into Mallorcan life beyond the resort belt.
Good to know
Bring water and sun protection for mountain sections. Footwear matters—trainers or hiking boots strongly advised. The lunch is hearty and includes fish, meat and vegetarian plates. Those with heart conditions or severe fitness limitations should reconsider the walking portions.
