Booking option: Guided hike in Mallorca along La Trapa to Sant Elm
The La Trapa hike starts in the small fishing village of Sant Elm. We walk along the coast enjoying spectacular views of the westernmost side of Mallorca and passing emblematic places such as the Cala Embasset tower, a defensive tower built in 1492 and equipped with a cannon to prevent pirates from landing in the bay. Then we begin the ascent to the La Trapa nature reserve. We reach the fascinating property, an old monastery with a lot of history and legacy, where we will see how the Trappist monks lived in this beautiful place overlooking the island of La Dragonera.
We will cross pine forests and rocky peaks, pass by historical sites such as Cap Fabioler and Ses Basses, and get to know the local flora and fauna until we reach Can Noviet. Can Noviet is a typical Mallorcan house where we enjoy our exclusive, typical Mallorcan luxury picnic and also get to know some of the customs and traditions of Mallorcan culture. After fortifying ourselves, we continue our excursion to s'Arracó, a charming village in the lower part of the Sa Palomera valley. Finally, we return to Sant Elm on an alternative route with flatter terrain and a shorter distance.

Detailed description
The La Trapa in Mallorca: La Trapa hike with an experienced guide
A fascinating history and impressive views of the coastline and the island of Dragonera await you on the hike along La Trapa in Mallorca. Let the experienced guide lead you on beautiful paths and trails far away from civilization along the south-western coast of the Serra de Tramuntana and experience the true beauty of Mallorca with your own eyes. The moderately difficult La Trapa hike requires a certain amount of stamina and good mobility, as you have to climb a small part over a few rocks - but you will experience a breathtaking view of Dragonera and immerse yourself in a piece of history from Mallorca on the La Trapa.
The former Trappist monastery La Trapa Mallorca was founded in 1810 by Trappist monks who escaped the French Revolution and erected a number of buildings and a water system on the remote and incredibly beautiful coastline to live autonomously. Learn more about the history of the fascinating monks from your hiking guide and relax in the beautiful nature during the La Trapa hike. The view of Dragonera Island is nowhere as beautiful as on the La Trapa Mallorca, because on the hike you can also see the protected island with its imposing cliffs from the northeastern side.
The La Trapa hike is generally possible all year round (in July and August on request) and leads as far as possible along easily accessible paths. In some places you need to be sure-footed. With good physical fitness you will have little trouble with the ascents and descents of this medium Mallorca hiking tour. The descent takes us over 650 metres to Sant Elm. In the small coastal village you have the possibility to refresh yourself in the sea after the La-Trapa-Route and to have a stop for refreshment.
