Itinerary
Puerto Sóller Lluc
Fly to Palma; transfer to Puerto Sóller
Fly to Palma and transfer to Puerto Sóller, arriving in time for a welcome dinner.
Accommodation: Hotel Eden Nord (or similar)
Start Puerto Sóller
We start at our hotel in Puerto Sóller and have a welcome group dinner in the evening.
Accommodation: Hotel Eden Nord (or similar)
Walk to Deia, stopping for a dip at Cala Deia – Activity Level 3 (Moderate) and Activity Level 5 (Challenging) departures
We walk along the coast to the beautiful little bay of Cala Deiá, where (time permitting) we can paddle in the turquoise waters. From here, we head inland towards Deiá, one of the most beautiful villages in Mallorca owing to its idyllic setting in the hills. This walk explores the delightful area between the mountains and sea, using old tracks and paths over the cliffs, and offers coastal views along the Mediterranean pinewoods and coastal shrubs. We stop for a picnic lunch along the way.
Accommodation: Hotel Eden Nord (or similar)
Walking distance: 8mi (12km); ascent: 1,315ft (400m); descent: 820ft (250m); duration: five hours
Tram ride to Sóller; take the Pilgrim Steps from Biniaraitx - Activity Level 3 (Moderate) departures
We take the historic wooden tram to Sóller and walk towards the village of Biniaraitx. From here, we will walk a wonderful circular route through the middle section of the Biniaraix ravine, which will allow us to discover Mallorca’s popular Dry Stone Route. The route was named due to the special technique which was used to line the route using only stones laid on top of each other, which can be identified with the many terraces and cobbled paths. On the route we will stop to have a picnic surrounded by a 50 metre waterfall.
Afterwards we will follow a different path back down to the centre of Sóller, where we usually stop for a drink or a wander around the town before taking the tram back to Puerto Sóller.
Accommodation: Hotel Eden Nord (or similar)
Walking distance: 6.5 mi (10.5km); ascent: 1,476ft (450m); descent: 1,476ft (450m); duration: five hours
Tram ride to Sóller; take the Pilgrim Steps from Biniaraitx before ascending Es Cornadors - Activity Level 5 (Challenging) departures
This is a similar walk to the Activity Level 3 (Moderate) description but once we reach the highest point of the Dry Stonhe Route, we then diverge onto a small path up to the Mirador den Quesada, the highpoint of our day at 3,140ft (957m). This mirador, or lookout point, is at the summit of particularly rocky outcrops known as the Cornadors, of which we have had some stunning views on our ascent. We descend past a mountain hut and through fields and forests of holm oak until eventually our track brings us back to the centre of Sóller, where we usually stop for a drink or a wander around the town before taking the tram back to Puerto Sóller.
Accommodation: Hotel Eden Nord (or similar)
Walking distance: 10mi (16km); ascent: 3,000ft (915m); descent: 3,000ft (915m); duration: six hours
Free day – Activity Level 3 (Moderate) and Activity Level 5 (Challenging) departures
Today has been left free for you to use as you wish. Choose to relax in Puerto Sóller or explore elsewhere on the island. Mallorca is the largest of the Balearic Islands and there is a wealth of things to see and do – your leader will provide further details and help you to arrange any excursions locally. For instance, you may decide to spend the day in Sóller (inland from Puerto Sóller) – wandering through its narrow streets and visiting museums. Other options include visiting picturesque Valldemossa or the island capital, Palma, which is home to a magnificent cathedral, numerous churches, museums and excellent shopping opportunities. It is recommended to take the historic wooden train through the mountains between Sóller and Palma at least one way. For something a little different, it is possible to take a taxi boat to Sa Foradada (to eat at the restaurant) or take the ferry to La Calobra to visit the mouth of the Torrent de Pareis Gorge.
Accommodation: Hotel Eden Nord (or similar)
Leave Puerto Sóller along a coastal mule track to Cala Tuent; transfer to Lluc Monastery – Activity Level 3 (Moderate) departures
After a short drive from the hotel, we start our walk from the Mirador de Ses Barques. From here, we follow an old mule track away from the coast to Coll de Moncaire and head inland through a hidden and unspoilt little valley to Balitx farm. Next, we climb up to Coll de Biniamar to join the coastal path of Sa Costera, offering spectacular scenery throughout, until we reach the little bay of Cala Tuent where the bus will meet us for the transfer (approximately one hour) along the beautiful Sa Calobra road to the Lluc Monastery.
Accommodation: Lluc Monastery (or similar)
Walking distance: 9mi (14km); ascent: 900ft (275m); descent: 2,130ft (650m); duration: five hours
Leave Puerto Sóller along the coast to Cala Tuent; transfer to Lluc Monastery – Activity Level 5 (Challenging) departures
This is a similar walk to the Activity Level 3 (Moderate) description but with a longer duration and higher ascent/descent.
Walking distance: 10mi (16km); ascent: 2,130ft (650m); descent: 2,130ft (650m); duration: 6hr 30min
Circular walk around Muleta de Binifaldo, passing ancient oak forests – Activity Level 3 (Moderate) departures
Today we enjoy a wonderful circular walk forming an arc around the Monastery of Lluc. The scenery along the route is varied and spectacular, including ancient oak forests, rock formations up to 200ft (60m) high and views of the highest peaks in Mallorca.

Puerto Sóller hotel and ancient monastery
The accommodation on this walking trip in Mallorca is split across two properties:
Puerto Sóller: Hotel Eden Nord (nights 1-4)
Spend the first four nights at Eden Nord, a 112-room hotel just 655ft (200m) from a sandy beach. It has a seasonal outdoor pool, plus plenty of loungers and a solarium − a great spot to relax when you’re not out walking. It also has a bright and breezy restaurant serving food from Mallorca and beyond, plus a bar selling cocktails, beers and wines.
Lluc: Lluc Monastery (nights 5-7)
For the remaining three nights, we stay in an ancient monastery that’s considered the most holy site on the island. Pilgrims arrive from far and wide to visit a statue of the Virgin Mary, which, in the 13th century, miraculously reappeared in this spot after being taken to a local village church. We stay in the guesthouse-style accommodation, plus there’s a seasonal pool and botanic garden for downtime. The Sa Fonda restaurant, operational since 1921, serves Mallorcan cuisine made with local products.

Advice for Potential Travellers
Be aware of the accommodation and what is offered. Exodus briefing a little simplistic
A week to get off the grid and explore Mallorca's stunning Tramuntana mountains!
My husband and I took this first departure of 2024 in the first week of April, the weather was cool but sunny and the trip was fantastic. It was our first visit to Mallorca and a great introduction to the northwestern part of the island and this mountain range. There are several small towns, or villages, that you will visit on your hikes, including Soller, Puerto Soller, Deia, Lluc and others. Several of the hikes through olive groves and orange orchards had stunning mountain and sea views and were scented with orange blossoms as we hiked through. We were on a level 3 departure, graded so for the ascents, descents and rocky paths – be prepared for the rocks and bring your hiking boots and poles. The locations of both hotels in Puerto Soller and Lluc are excellent on this trip, so unique, and Lluc in particular, is so tranquil and scenic.
Most Inspirational Moment
Hiking trails scented with orange blossoms Beautiful sea views on the coastal trails, with a little swim in a quiet cove Summiting Puig Galileu on the last day of hiking
Thoughts on Group Leader
Jacob was fantastic; funny, kind and very capable on the hikes. He was very well organized and we felt very well taken care of. It was a pleasure getting to know him during the week. Since he was a local to the area, he was extremely knowledgeable and provided insight to the culture and customs and context to the geography and history of the area. Thank you for a great week Jacob!
Advice for Potential Travellers
The dry stone path in Mallorca is very rocky, so hiking boots and poles are very recommended. Bring your refillable water bottle, at least a 1.5L, for the hikes, there are plenty of places to refill. Have a plan for your free day, the guide can point you in the right direction, but if you will go to Palma, the cathedral closes at 2pm so you will have to go in the morning. If taking the historic wooden train back to Soller from Palma on this day, you will need to book your tickets ahead.
A great week
Varied walking in mountainous and coastal scenery. Good to have the opportunity for city viewing in Palma and Soller. Some rocky descents which were quite challenging as required a lot of concentration.
Most Inspirational Moment
The windy summit on the final day's walk
Thoughts on Group Leader
Jacob was efficient and organised.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Boots with a good ankle support , I think, are essential. A pole helps with the descents which, especially on the 2nd day , were quite long and a bit arduous . They demanded a lot of concentration so watching your feet rather than the view was required. Not many wild flowers to see on this 1st Easter departure date but a good temperature for walking. The wooded sections would provide much needed shade later into the early summer.
Rocky walking
I did the grade 3 version, I found the walks easy in terms of height gain and distance, but a lot of the paths have very uneven rock and stone surfaces and I would recommend proper walking boots to avoid twisted ankles.
The Hotel in Port Soller was plain, clean and comfortable with a good breakfast. Quality of the diners in local restaurants was variable. The Monestry (wonderful buildings) is really an hotel/hostel adequate breakfast but ldisappointing evening meals. Picnics were a piece of fruit and a filled roll, fairly basic.
The walks were pleasingly varied and our guide was excellent.
Most Inspirational Moment
Sitting on a high peak on the last day surveying a vast panorama.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Jacob was delightful, just the right blend of good humour and efficiency.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Bring proper boots. Read the trip notes properly!
Beautiful and challenging!
This was a great holiday. The walking were challenging but well planned and Jakob our guide took great care of us brining extra treats along the way. The accommodation was nice, and I liked the contrast between busy Port de Soller and quieter Lluc. A couple of walks ended with the opportunity to swim which was particularly lovely!
Most Inspirational Moment
Tracing the summit of Massanella
Thoughts on Group Leader
He was great. He managed a group of hikers with varying paces well, and brought extra snacks. He was good at looking after our safety in the mountain.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Make sure you are booking on the right grade of trip- there had beed some confusion in our group with some travellers thinking they had booked on a moderate week when it was in fact challenging. Everyone managed the walks-with Jacobs help-but good to get what you expect!!
Exceptional Guiding in a beautiful mountain range
Very well thought through itinerary in beautiful and sometimes spectacular locations. Exceptional guiding from Jacob who was flexible to the needs of the group and a font of local information, positivity and encouragement.
Most Inspirational Moment

Advice for Potential Travellers
Bring mosquito repellent and use it during the day.
Mallorca (May 23)
Brilliant walking holiday with 7 other friendly walkers and an expert guide, Jacob.
Most Inspirational Moment
Reaching top of two mountains 1.1 to 1.2km high.

Jacob was wonderful: experienced, careful, friendly, flexible, sociable and knowledgeable (he’s a local).
Advice for Potential Travellers
Take walking poles!
Lovely scenery, disappointing walks
I booked on a Level 5 Challenging departure in April 2022. Mallorca is a beautiful island with absolutely lovely scenery but I was extremely disappointed with the walks chosen. Short, coastal walks at a very slow pace and far too many stops. There was only one day where we were really reached a summit. It was very frustrating and has deterred me from booking a guided tour with Exodus again. I specifically booked a Level 5 departure for the challenging hikes but Exodus did not deliver. I travelled with Exodus on many occasions in the past and always had a fantastic experience. I would not book with them again based on this trip.
Most Inspirational Moment
Reaching the summit of Puig Tomir
Thoughts on Group Leader
We had two group leaders which led to the trip being disjointed. Jacob for the first three walking days and Eduard for the last two days. Very knowledgable about the area and keen to share that with the group, which was really interesting. However, ultimately they did not deliver on the Level 5 Challenging nature of the trip.
Reply from Exodus
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, Irene, although we are incredibly sorry that you found some of the walks to be too easy, as we recognise that you were anticipating more of a challenge from this trip. As I hope you appreciate, activity levels are inherently subjective, but we do endeavour to describe each trip as accurately as possible, and we are always open to suggestions to amend our guidance should we be made aware of clients feeling a particular trip’s grading should be changed. We have been operating this trip for many years, and we therefore receive a large volume of feedback regarding our clients’ views on the itinerary. Whilst our product manager, Malcolm Parkinson, and tour leaders feel that the current grading for our Walking in Mallorca trip is accurate, we are aware that adverse weather conditions and the abilities of some of your group members prevented you from completing some of your walks and affected the pace of the walks that did go ahead, which we acknowledge must have been extremely disappointing. It must have been further frustrating to have two different tour leaders, as this is not the usual arrangement. This should certainly not have been the case, and, following your feedback, we have instructed our local manager to not operate future trips in this manner. We are hugely grateful for your loyalty to Exodus over the years and we genuinely hope that you will reconsider your decision to not book with us again.
Wonderful week of walking
A fabulous week of walking with lots to offer: fantastic views, opportunities to swim in the sea, a chance to ride on the Soller Tram and the old Palma train, numerous restaurants to try with delicious food, comfortable accommodation and an excellent tour leader. We were also lucky to have perfect sunny May weather.
Most Inspirational Moment
The final day climbing the beautifully maintained "Salt Path" along the cliffs to the top of Puig d'en Galileu, and the views from the top.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Eduardo was excellent: friendly, sociable and full of interesting information about Mallorca. He has been leading this trip for many years and has had the chance to perfect it.
Advice for Potential Travellers
The paths are stony, so sturdy footwear is a must. The beaches - other than the sandy beach at Soller - are also stony, so unless you have very tough feet, bring some sandals or swim shoes if you like to swim in the sea. If you are going into Palma on your free day, take the first tram from Porto Soller at 8.30am; it connects perfectly in Soller for the 9am train to Palma (beautiful old wooden carriages!).
Amazing
What a fantastic walking trip – beautiful scenery, well organised and varied walks, and enhanced by a lovely group of fellow-walkers. Eduardo is a first class guide, and manages to accommodate everybody’s abilities. This was the Grade 5 level walk, which was quite challenging towards the end of the week, mainly due to the unseasonably hot weather.. But so rewarding. My first trip with Exodus. Can’t wait to book the next one!
Most Inspirational Moment
Reaching the summit on the last day of the trip - higher than Ben Nevis and in 28 degrees heat!
Thoughts on Group Leader
First rate leader, so proud of his Mallorcan roots. Full of interesting anecdotes, and lots of historical facts.
