The Sierra de Tramuntana is a wild and beautiful area with many steep climbs, breathtaking views, natural waterfalls, monasteries and centuries-old pilgrimage sites. Not surprisingly, this diverse landscape was included in the UNESCO World Natural Heritage list in 2011.

Extras:
Our guides will be cooking simple Mediterranean style dinners for us throughout our journey, as well as preparing breakfasts and picnics when necessary. The transport vehicle will bring our backpacks to the camp each evening and take them to the following destinations each day so we can ride free.
Please let us know if you have any specific dietary requirements or medical issues we should know about.
This ride is aimed at experienced riders who are able to spend several hours in the saddle. You must be physically fit, so you get on and off the horse easily and be able to walk your horse through steep terrain up and down.
