A new and fully updated edition of Walking in Mallorca, the most comprehensive guidebook to the island, now illustrated with new mapping and colour pictures. This book will entice walkers well off the beaten track, enabling them to explore the island’s diverse terrain. Rugged mountain walks contrast with remote valleys, while waymarked trails give way to long-forgotten mule tracks and hidden mountain passes. Some walks run close to breathtaking cliff coastlines, while others pass through sleepy villages where welcome refreshment can be obtained.

  • A full introduction gives advice on walking on Mallorca and details facilities around the island.
  • New mapping reflects the reclassification of Mallorca’s road numbering system.
  • Language notes in native Catalan and Castilian Spanish enable visitors to make the most of their visit.
