Country Walkers
This Mallorca hiking tour reveals a magical isle, from its pretty terraced villages to a coastline framed by dramatic mountains and crystalline sea.
Majestic Mallorca, with its terraced hillsides, dramatic coastline, and ancient villages, is prime territory for walkers. And hiking Mallorca is the best way to discover it all up close. Hike the cobbled byways of some of the prettiest towns in Spain, whose roots predate recorded history, and tour fascinating Roman ruins with an expert guide. Breathe in the salty air of its rugged Mediterranean coast, admiring panoramic views framed by a UNESCO-protected mountain range. And experience all its flavors, from rare Malvasia wine and fresh-squeezed juice to tapas and the liquid gold of olive oil. Each exhilarating day is well rewarded with stays at charming boutique hotels, including the only thermal spa resort in the Balearics.

Palma de Mallorca
The Balearics are comprised of 16 islands; the three principal ones are Mallorca, Ibiza and Menorca. Lying just 60 miles off the Spanish mainland, the islands’ lush and rugged landscape combined with an extremely mild, sunny climate prove irresistible. The Balearics boast cosmopolitan resorts with lively nightlife and plenty of sports activities. Palma de Majorca is the capital of the archipelago. A cosmopolitan city with sophisticated shops and restaurants, it also offers buildings of spectacular Moorish and gothic architecture. Museo de Mallorca housed in the Palacio Ayamans boasts an interesting collection of Moorish, medieval and 18th- to 19th-century art. Those who wish to explore the northern end of the island will enjoy the dramatic land and seascape of Cabo Formentor at the end of a long, narrow peninsula. A winding road with magnificent views leads to the luxury Hotel Formentor, beautifully situated above the bay. The lighthouse of Cabo Formentor is the most northerly point on Majorca.
