View of Valldemossa

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

A really nice way along the slope with a view of Valdemossa. At the starting point of this marked route is a checkpoint nature reserve (approved way). The path straight through the forest (no view) is not in Komoot on the map. Take the Hangweg if you are here because without prior permission you will not go straight ahead on the way to the nature reserve and he would be boring because without a view. From the inspector and conservationist I have also learned from the beautiful Cami de s-Arxiduc and then changed my route. There is nothing like tips from locals :-)

The Habsburg Archduke Ludwig Salvator had this path laid out in the 19th century. It leads through the high plateaus of the Tramuntana and offers magnificent views. Surefootedness and good shoes are required. Even if the path is called like this: You probably can't ride a horse here. According to legend, it was so named because there is said to be a painting of the Archduke and his friend, the Austrian Empress Sisi, where she is seated on a mule that he is leading.

View of Deià from the Cliff Edge

Highlight • Viewpoint

Well, it's not really dangerous. The path is wide enough and it is a few meters to the edge. But you should pay attention to the path and not just enjoy the truly breathtaking view. It can be a problem for people who are afraid of heights and in fog.

The most spectacular section of the path begins behind Es Caragoli. The view is magnificent, reaching as far as Sa Foradada, Deià and the Archduke's former estates. In the other direction the view extends as far as Palma (you can even see a cruise ship in the harbor) and as far as Cap Blanc.

The view is sensational, quite easy to walk - but the ascent until then (no matter from which direction) is quite exhausting

View of Deià and Port de Sóller

Highlight • Viewpoint

You don't have to register to get to this point. Take the Cami de ses Basses to Pla dets Aritges and then the Camí de s'Arxiduc. All public roads.

View of Sa Foradada

Highlight • Viewpoint

This is a very cool excursion, from the moment you climb you have wonderful views of Valldemossa, passing through the forest and arriving at the top with some very nice views of Sa Foradada, Deià and the port of Soller that you can see at its best. I recommend that you be aware of the piles of stones along the way, in some places you can deviate from the path because it is not well signposted.

Started in the rain, hiked through the misty clouds and couldn't find the way. If you're smart, you go the other way around, then you don't stand like a question mark in front of the mountain and don't know what to do next.

Hiking Mallorca at the most beautiful time of the year is fantastic.

You don't really have to describe the hiking trail, because there was already enough going on here. As always, you should leave early, just because of the parking spaces.

I made initial mistakes par excellence when I

We set off with the best weather, had a good breakfast and were fit as a fiddle and were greeted with lots of sun at the top. Great tour! 😁😁😁

A dream tour above the town of Valdemossa 👍. Not so long, more “short and sweet”. I recommend starting early, wearing sturdy shoes and having a good head for heights at the top😉

After the planning of the Malle trip of the 4 compadres from the Franconian country was bagged, the hiking Franconian anticipation was mainly focused on today with the mountain panorama tour in/around/over Valdemossa. Ever since I "retired" at the beginning of 2022 (the idea for this whimsical Malle trip also comes from the end of 2022/me or beginning of 2023/Best …

Today we go to the Archduke's bridle path. We start in a small parking lot in Valldemossa and climb up through holm oak forests.

The Archduke's route runs through Deià and Valldemossa on a plateau with magnificent views. We linger briefly on the crest of the Teix, but are almost blown away. The wind is cold and keeps blowing clouds …

Today we walked the bridle path. Probably the most beautiful hiking tour on the island. Not only good shoes and sure-footedness are required here, but especially a head for heights. Steep, rocky paths are always there and have to be overcome.
The tour starts in Valldemossa, one of Mallorca's most beautiful mountain villages, short climbing passages, long, narrow ridge paths …

The bridle path that Archduke Ludwig Salvator had built to the Caragoli in the 19th century is one of the most beautiful hiking routes in Mallorca.

Our route variant leads through parts of the Montanya del Voltor nature reserve, for which you must obtain a permit a few days in advance because access to this protected area is limited to …
