Secret Hills Walking Holidays
Walking in the Mountains of Majorca
The Holiday
Superb GUIDED walking, good company and an excellent hotel - all make this a "must do" holiday

The Walks
Walking is varied and some of the routes are shown here.
Cala Tuent - classic varied walk to idyllic Cala Tuent cove
Deia—Puerto Soller - lovely walk along ancient way marked routes and mule tracks
Castell de Alaro - to the Castell, perched on one of the “Molar Mountains”, once a Moorish stronghold, beautiful views.
Binifaldo—Pollensa - ancient Pilgrims way with good views all the way.
Tossals - Lloseta - starting under Puig Major, at the Cubar reservoir, ascend the Pigeons Pass, and down to Almendra and Loseta.
We transport you to the walk start each day and also to the various historical sites we visit.
Your Walk leaders
Eileen Cutler is your leader, 20 years experienced in guiding in Majorca, whose knowledge of the history and culture of this area adds much enjoyment to your holiday. Alan Garner and Chris Bland are your tour guides - looking after all other aspects of the holiday for you.
The Climate
Is typically Mediterranean, mild winters and hot summers - too hot for walking. We organize our holidays in March/April - lovely spring flowers and a green paradise, and September, when it is still lovely and warm, ideal for walking.
Flights
There are flights from most major airports to Palma and you will be transferred to the Puerto Pollensa from the airport. We will quote you from the nearest airport to you, but dependent on flight days and times, we may advise different airports at the time of reservation - but the choice is yours. There may be flight supplements dependent on the airport you fly from, and on how late you book with us. We will always quote you to your exact specification and give you options on flights.
Your Hotel
We use the Hotel Uyal in Puerto Pollensa as our base for Majorcan walking holidays. A modern hotel, superb facilities, all you need to relax after walking. We stay half board, and dinner is always a feature of our holidays - time to socialize, with good food and wine to swap stories about the day’s walking. The hotel, located just across from the beach, and about 1km from downtown Puerto Pollensa. It is fully air conditioned and has a swimming pool, It has a range of reception rooms, and outdoor relaxing areas to enhance your holiday. Sea view rooms available at extra costs. Small single supplement for sole use of a twin room.
Your Food
Breakfast is taken in the hotel’s dining room or on the outside terrace, by the bay. Plenty of choice, buffet style, but a full English can be served at a daily supplement. Dinner - three courses from a table d'hôte menu that changes each day. The starters are filling, and main courses come with vegetables grown on the island.. We generally eat inside during the time we are on the island, but if it’s a warm evening then outside eating is highly recommended.
