Ride through the stunning mountain range of Serra de Tramuntana in Mallorca, Spain. Deserted, wild beaches, forests, mountaintop pools and wild camping all await on this unique short break. Nature has created wild gorges and with more than 50 peaks, a horse is the ideal companion for exploring this wild and wonderful landscape.

The Riding

The riding on this holiday takes you along a stretch of wild, remote coastline. Youโ€™ll be riding on country lines and forest paths as well as along beaches.

Youโ€™ll be exploring a part of Mallorca that few visitors get to see. The pace can be fast where the terrain allows although there are some steep mountain sections where the pace is walking.

You should be a capable rider who is able to spend several hours in the saddle and enjoys a good fast pace. You will be riding around 5-6 hours each day, so you must have a good level of current riding fitness.
