Excursions in Mallorca

Mallorca is a paradise that goes far beyond its famous beaches and nightlife. Every year, thousands of tourists come to discover the island from within, exploring its natural landscapes, history, and culture through various excursions. Today, on our blog, we are going to talk about one of the best excursions in Mallorca, ideal for those seeking a brief but rewarding adventure. Additionally, we will give you some suggestions to make your day as complete and enjoyable as possible.

One of the most recommended excursions in Mallorca is the visit to La Trapa. This tour, which can be completed in less than 4 hours, will take you through some of the most impressive landscapes on the island. However, it should be noted that this excursion is not suitable for very young children or very elderly adults due to its moderate difficulty.

La Trapa

La Trapa is an impressive 81-hectare mountain estate located in the southwest of the Sierra de Tramuntana, within the municipality of Andratx, and is easily accessible from Sant Elm. To start the excursion to La Trapa, park on Avinguda de la Trapa in Sant Elm. At the end of the avenue, the road turns into a forest track called Camí de Can Tomeví.

Follow this path until you reach a trail junction. Take the left path marked "La Trapa." As you ascend, you will enjoy increasingly spectacular views of the Serra de Tramuntana, with the sea appearing on the horizon. Upon reaching the top, you will be rewarded with an impressive view of the La Trapa estate and a partial view of Sa Dragonera.

During the descent, you will see a sign towards Sant Elm indicating an alternative way back. This route offers a unique experience of the natural beauty and landscapes of Mallorca.

If you do the excursion in summer, we recommend starting early to avoid the midday heat. Don't forget to bring high-factor sunscreen, plenty of water, some fruit for the trail, and a snack for the end.

When you finish the excursion, we suggest a perfect plan: take a dip in one of Sant Elm's coves. After that, it's the ideal time to return to your holiday hotel. What better option than our Universal Hotel Aquamarin? There, you can take a good shower and relax before going down to eat.

After refreshing in the coves, we suggest a walk through the streets of Sant Elm. Here, you can enjoy a delicious ice cream while contemplating the stunning views of the sea and the nearby island of Sa Dragonera. The relaxed atmosphere and natural beauty of Sant Elm make this place the perfect destination to complete your morning excursion. A super complete day during your holidays in Mallorca!
