Coastal Mallorca Hike And Scenic Views From Sant Elm To La Trapa Monastery
Coastal Mallorca Hike and Scenic Views from Sant Elm to La Trapa Monastery
This exhilarating journey showcases the panoramic beauty of the Palma de Mallorca while intertwining elements of culture, natural beauty, and invigorating physical activity.
Initially setting foot in the charming old fishing village of Sant Elm, your trek meanders along the coast, eventually leading you to the time-honored "Torre de Cala ses Bassets" watchtower. This 400-year-old sentinel casts a watchful eye over Dragon Island, speckled off the southwestern coast of Mallorca.
As the adventure meanders, a winding path will guide you through a lush forest, later ascending a rocky ridge as you make your way to the secluded Trappist Monastery, "La Trapa." Throughout your hike, indulge your senses with stunning coastal views and the shimmering Mediterranean extending into the horizon.
The journey's first highlight, Cala En Basset Watchtower, awaits you 20 minutes into the hike. A brief interlude provides an opportune moment to absorb the mesmerizing Mallorquin coastline, with Dragon Island and Cala en Basset Beach stealing the show.
As the tour continues, a brief pause at Cala en Basset Beach gives you the opportunity to plunge into the crystalline Mediterranean. At midday, you will arrive at the tranquil retreat of La Trapa Monastery, a cornerstone of the island's cultural heritage nestled within the mountains.
Following the visit, the journey back to Sant Elm commences, concluding with a comfortable transfer back to the cruise terminal. The enchanting walk from Sant Elm to La Trapa Monastery is undeniably a highlight of any visit to Mallorca, blending natural grandeur, cultural intrigue, and engaging physical activity in one unforgettable excursion.
