Wandern / Tour #5994
The Pilgrims path from Caimari to Lluc

This walk follows one of the many ancient Pilgrims paths that are found in Mallorca. This 8 mile hike goes from the village of Caimari to the Lluc Monastery.
The walk is taken in the reverse from Coll de sa Bataia near to the Monastery down to the sleepy village of Caimari. This means that it is all down hill to Caimari and all uphill on the return.
The village square is a good place for a halfway rest and lunch.
The walk crosses and recrosses the original route and occasionally uses the actual Pilgrims path that has been restored in places. The route is said to be 700 years old. There are some stupendous views along the way.
The route and path can be very rocky and uneven so good walking boots are essential.
