Walking in the western and northern mountains of Majorca was beautiful. My first visit to the island and I was not disappointed. A good group of sixteen like-minded people, two very different bases, secluded coves, rugged mountains and excellent tapas – what was not to like.
Eduardo! A superb guide. Eager to share his knowledge and obvious love of his home country and the pa amb oli lunches were wonderful.

The trip is rated moderate in the brochure but at times sections were fairly challenging. Proper footwear and a stick a must!
Another wonderful Exodus holiday. The walking was superb and the accommodation characterful, with the contrast of the hotel near the seafront of the beautiful coastal town of Puerto Soller and then the stunning converted monastery at Lluc. Highly recommended.
There were many during the week however the summiting of the two high peaks(957m & 1,181 m) and the stunning coastal walk to Cala Tuent were the highlights.
Eduard was absolutely superb. His leadership of the walks was first class. His knowledge of the local environment and history of so many aspects of the island was also excellent. Above all else he was an extremely sociable person and simply great fun to be with. He also supplied delicious packed lunches! Keep doing what you're doing Eduard!
Mainly if you're thinking of booking this holiday then definitely go for it. With regard to the weather it was 33 degrees on one of the days, even in September, therefore make sure you have plenty of water and sunscreen with you.
My brother and I booked the “Walking in Mallorca” holiday and we went in mid-May as we knew the weather would be nice but not too hot for walking. The flight from Gatwick was hassle-free and we were met by our guide at Palma Airport and transferred to the hotel in Port de Soller. The hotel was nice but the room could have been cleaned a little better (our bathroom bin hadn’t been emptied and the floor not swept) and the beds were a bit too hard. We also had a problem with the air con, which was fixed the day after we reported it. The breakfast was good with a wide variety of options to choose from. On the Thursday we transferred to the Lluc Monastery, which was simple yet peaceful and comfortable, although an extra pillow would have been welcome. On our last day we were helpfully taken back to the airport by our guide. As the monastery is quite remote and ideally you need a car to explore the area, I feel we could have gone back to Palma earlier than our check-in time requirement rather than waited at the monastery for several hours with little to do so that we could have explored some of the city instead (e.g. the cathedral) before our flight home. Unfortunately the check-in process at Palma took much longer than at Gatwick and our flight was also delayed by just over an hour, which was frustrating after a nice holiday.
The walking aspect of the holiday was described as moderate difficulty and the distances/ascents given in advance, which was very useful. Although I consider myself reasonably fit, I did struggle a little bit with some of the walks due to the humidity and where the climbing was quite steep and slippery under foot. However, the guide was very helpful and supportive on these occasions and adjusted the pace of the walk accordingly. In future I would probably choose to do an “easy” level holiday so that we have more free time to explore the surroundings (e.g. it would have been nice to have spent more time in Valldemossa).
Overall we had a very pleasant and memorable holiday and would definitely return to Mallorca. I would also consider booking with Exodus again.
Reaching the summit of Puig d'en Galileu (1181m), one of the island's highest peaks. The coastal walk along a mule trail to Cala Tuent was also very impressive.
Our guide was Eduard, who was very knowledgeable about the island's social and political history, flora, fauna and bird life as well as local information (e.g. restaurants). He expertly led us on a range of walks that encompassed the best aspects of the island - the coast, mountains, forests and olive/citrus groves. His humour kept our spirits up during the difficult moments and he was very thoughtful when it came to preparing the picnics each day, making sure that the spread included a range of Mallorcan fayre.
I would particularly recommend the Sa Font Coberta restaurant at Lluc Monastery: the traditional, home-cooked food was great and the owner was incredibly friendly and accommodating. Walking poles are advisable to help with the tougher ascents and descents.
Thoroughly enjoyable, good being based in two centres, each day a different and lovely walk, top quality picnics, very well organised and excellently guided by Eduardo.
shedloads of lycra !
A local guide, very experienced and knowledgeable about the area. Charming and considerate. He looked after us very well.
A great week of varied walks with a fantastic group, based in two very different but superb locations (Porte de Soller and Lluc Monastery).
Very good food at the local restaurants in Puerto de Soller and the restaurant outside the monastery. Eduardo (tour leader) made us such lovely picnics on the walks too!
The views along the coastal path of Sa Costera and the stunning mountain pass scenery on the transfer to the monastery.
Eduardo is an excellent guide - highly experienced and with a great love and knowledge of his native Mallorca.
Walking boots are a good choice for the rocky paths. Pack lots of layers... it was very cold on the top of mountains, and cool at night too (traveled March 2016). We booked the moderate week and found it was very manageable for anyone with a reasonable level of fitness.
Just returned from a wonderful week of walking in Mallorca. The views on many of the walks were worth the climbs. Very good food and a great walk leader in Edwardo who has a great passion for the Island of Mallorca.
The stay in the Monastery was a wonderful experience. The walks from there provided great views.
Edwardo is a very good walk leader with a very good knowledge of the island, its history and customs.
We chose the week designated as Challenging, and thoroughly enjoyed 6 full days of walking through beautiful coastal and mountainous scenery. The weather was dry and mostly warm, and our group was able to complete all of the anticipated itinerary.
Highly recommended!
There were many highlights for me, including the route and marvellous views on days 3 and 4, walking high above the sea on the route to Cala Tuent on day 5, and scrambling up the steeper rocky slopes on days 6 and 7.
Our friendly leader Eduard was excellent. He is passionate and knowledgeable about all things Mallorcan - history, culture, flora and fauna, and the Tramuntana mountain area. We were able to learn so many things. Sometimes we would stop for a few minutes rest (chocolate provided!), and he would tell us all about something in more depth. He looked after the safety and well-being of everyone in the group.
Do consider the distances, duration, ascent/descent given in the trip notes for each day, and compare with the walking that you are used to. This will help you to decide whether you can expect to fully enjoy the trip.
Another great trip with Exodus and superb guide, Edward. Beautiful scenery, good walks and the food on the trip was excellent.
So many amazing moments throughout the trip.
Edward was very patient, knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and a good sense of humour, even if he did laugh at his own jokes.
Take walking boots, even although Sketchers were fine!
This is a great trip with short flight times from the UK. There are lots of quite rough rocky paths and for most people boots would be a good option. Some quite long descents on loose stony paths.
Coastal walk is spectacular and ends at a great place for swimming!
Great local leader with extensive knowledge.
Local flora seems friendly to wearing shorts. Lucc is a very quite place with very basic rooms, maybe take a book or some music! Its pretty easy to self navigate to Soller from Palma (or there airport) as the local bus service is good although it doesn't run late in the evening.
A scenic, interesting, and authentic walking adventure in the Northern mountainous region of Majorca
Our group of sixteen hikers soon bonded, under the skilled supervision of our local tour leader Eduard. We were made to feel like locals at each Travellers Rest, cafe,hotel and Monastery because of the rapport and friendship he had established with the local people.
Eduard has bags of energy, enthusiasm for his homeland, and a passion for conservation and sustainable tourism. His humour and engaging personality was central to the enjoyment of this trip. His frequent stops enroute to take in points of interest covered stunning vistas, knowledge of flora, fauna,ecology, history,customs etc....and all with the authority of a man who has lived on the island. A proud and very well travelled Majorcan. Eduard is everything a tour guide should be.
Travel light, immerse yourself into the local mindset. Share your bread, a smile and a complement.
