Highlights

This wild yet peaceful trail follows bucolic country lanes and caminos to a seemingly impassable part of Ibiza’s wildest northern coast, where it plunges down an ancient trail to a hidden cove of historic fisherman’s huts. Here we dive into clear, cool and deep waters beneath rust red cliffs before following a once-forgotten farmer’s path through a bamboo forest to a rare fresh water source. A ruined finca and series of abandoned orchards, where 113 fig trees still flourish, give a thrilling sense of an Ibiza of centuries past, instilling a deep sense of peace and wonder. The clifftop sunset at the end of the lost hunter’s trail is one of Ibiza’s most dramatic.

Important Information

Food & Beverages: Carrying ample drinking water is essential. There are no stores or other facilities along our trails. Fruit and energy bars are ideal for mid-way sustenance.

What to Bring: The Hike Station will provide for each person a small backpack. You should bring at least 1.5L of water per person, and snacks if you would like. Please bring your own: sun hat, sun cream, and swimwear for coastal hikes. Also ensure you bring any necessary medication or inhalers that you might require during the hike.

What to Wear: Suitable footwear, including socks (sports trainers are fine). Anyone wearing unsuitable footwear (such as flip-flops), or no socks, will not be able to hike. Ideally you should wear comfortable, quick-drying sportswear. A jacket or hoodie are recommended for sunset hikes, windy days, or rare cold days! We think black is best!
