Postman's Route, Esporles to Banyalbufar

Following breakfast at the hotel this morning, we will transfer to the mountain village of Esporles, the pretty village retains much of its original charm with typical stone faced houses and winding streets. Here we will begin the popular hiking route ‘Old Postman’s Route.’ The camí des Correu (Post Road) is the royal road with medieval roots dating from 1401 and connects Esporles with Banyalbufar. Until the 19th century, this public path was the only means of communication between the two towns and, from there, with Palma; but after the current road between Esporles and Banyalbufar was inaugurated, the path was abandoned. The Consell de Mallorca restored it in 1999 and included it in the path network of the Ruta de Piedra en Seco. The route runs through holm oak forests and wonderful views of the Serra de Tramuntana coast.
