Mayorkskaya Trail Cliffs and Sea — Camí Vell: A Trail to Quiet and Beautiful Places

Route at a glance

The shoreline continually changes perspective, moving between sheltered sections and exposed headlands. The character of the area is especially clear in coastal paths, exposed headlands and sheltered bays. The main landmarks are Mediterranean Sea, Camí Vell, Maiorkskaia and Serra de Tramuntana. Each deserves a short pause for both the details and the wider setting.

Getting there

Without a car

From Palma, use TIB trains towards Inca or Sóller and regional buses to the nearest village. For mountain trailheads near the trailhead, check seasonal timetables and the last return service. Because the start and finish are in different places, check the return service in advance, arrange a transfer or leave a second vehicle near the finish.

By car

Use the Ma-13/Ma-20 and local Serra de Tramuntana roads, including the Ma-10. Mountain roads are narrow, and access to some coves may be controlled. Because the start and finish are in different places, check the return service in advance, arrange a transfer or leave a second vehicle near the finish.

Parking

Leave the car in a municipal village car park or at a signed trailhead. Do not block private entrances or narrow stone-walled lanes.

The main difficulty depends on trail conditions: after rain the surface may become slippery and the usual pace may slow. The finish is separate from the start, so arrange the return journey before setting out.
