Day 1:  Sunday Arrival in Palma. Transfer to Alcudia and get together with your guide. Dinner and overnight.
Day 2:  We pick you up at your accommodation for a short drive to the stables. Here you will meet your “Best Friend” for the next few days. After an introductory ride to get to know your horse, you will receive your saddle bags for the trail and meet the rest of the group. The afternoon is open for some beach time or exploring the old part of Alcudia.
Day 3:  In the morning, pick up at the hostal and drive to stables. Everyone works together to groom and saddle the horses. Now we are on our way! The first part of the trail leads us through the beautiful Finca and nature reserve of Albufereta. We ride past an old Roman bridge and the town of Pollensa, reaching the mountains of Serra de Tramuntana. Following an old pilgrim path through the mountains we pass by almond, olive and carob trees. We continue to ride through aromatic pine forests and through picturesque riverbeds, fields, pastures and valleys. Slowly but surely we reach 1100m with fantastic views over the mountains of Mallorca down to the coast and ocean bays. We end our first day at the Monastery Lluc. The accommodation is simple and clean. We have dinner together in the cloister’s restaurant, which serves typical mallorquin food.
Day 4:  After a light breakfast we prepare the horses and our second day can begin! Today we see some fantastic scenery high up in the mountains, which a normal tourist hardly ever sees. Our horses will demonstrate their sturdy legs and brave temperaments! The ride crosses a wild mountain ridge “ Maçanella “ (1000m), through the forest and mountain landscape, down to a height of 540m to the fascinating refuge of Tossals Verds. The 578 hectare public estate of the same name has samples of dry stone infrastructures built for traditional purposes. We will stay overnight here and the horses will rest in a coral. With a little bit of luck in the mountains we will see sheep, wild goats, wild cats, weasel, birds and the rare black vulture of Mallorca.
Day 5:  Today we will ride back to the cloister at Lluc, making our way over the mountain of Galileo which reaches a height of over 1300m. Riding on the crest of this mountain we will see the most incredible views over the island! On our route we come upon several ‘snow houses.’ We follow paths that people used to bring ice down to the village in the past. These dry-stone paths date back to the 13th century. They were essential in assisting the transport of goods and people between towns and estates, to access towers, sanctuaries and chapels or to reach farming and grazing fields, forests, fishing piers, etc. Along the dry-stone paths you will discover built-in dry-stone structures in the Tramuntana mountain range as well as other dry-stone features such as retaining walls, fountains, shelters, snow houses, etc. Finally we arrive in Lluc after a very exciting day.
Day 6:  This is our last day and we ride down the mountains back to the stables. The trail first goes uphill to the pass "Coll Pelat", to a source where water is bottled and the farm "Binifaldó". From here we ride the old pilgrims’ path from Lluc to Pollença. After two exciting days this ride is more relaxed and easygoing. Reaching Pollensa we will have lunch and ride back to the stables through the beautiful countryside of North Mallorca.
Day 7:  Departure day and transfer to the airport.

Subject to change

The beautiful island of Mallorca boasts an average of 300 days of sunshine each year. Mallorca is typically Mediterranean with hot, dry summers in the high 20°s (low 80°Fs) and mild winters, with the temperatures roughly half that of summer. The sea regulates extreme temperatures and pleasant sea breezes also keep hot days from becoming too unpleasant. Mallorca experiences irregular rainfall, mostly tending to fall between autumn and winter.

Four nights accommodation (3 nights Guest House, 2 nights in the Cloister hotel Santuari de Lluc, and 1 night in mountain refuge).

Hotel Fonda Llabrés: La Fonda Llabrés is one of the two guest houses located in Alcudia´s historical town centre, directly at the Plaza de la Constitución. Bought in 1950 by the family Llabrés, La Fonda became the first guest house in town. Ever since then, new hotels have been built and at the same time La Fonda has adapted itself to current times and was totaly renovated a few years ago. The friendly staff as well as the facilities will help wave the best of your stay. The guest house consists of 21 rooms divided in two buildings, all equiped with central heating, air conditioning and TV. In the old building, you will have an outstanding view of La Plaza de la Constitución from your window. The new building was previously the old Telephone Exchange and looks out onto "carrer del moll", the pedestrianised high street with all the main shops. This street divides the town in half and plays host to a street market twice a week (Tuesday and Sunday).

Santuari de Lluc: In the last few years the emblematic and symbolic value of the place has been emphasized and this has spread the proliferation of clichés about the most emblematic and star of all the Majorcan sanctuaries; but without doubt the Lluc Monastery enjoys a religious tradition as the centre of spirituality since the time of the arrival of the Catalonians on the island and before that as a botanical garden.
The Lluc monastery stands alone 400 meters in height surrounded by high mountains. Founded in the 13th century, it has suffered many transformations throughout the years. The Lluc monastery and its surroundings, without doubt, make up the most important cultural patrimony in the Tramutana Mountain range and has been so since a long time before it ever became a place of Christian worship. Lluc was a sacred place and a site worthy of pilgrimages in Roman times when it was a lucus or sacred forest.
In the sanctuary there are 129 rooms to sleep in, with bathrooms and heating.
