Why should I go hiking in Ibiza?
When you think about hiking destinations, Ibiza may not spring immediately to your mind! That's a good thing, though - it means you'll enjoy more privacy on the trails. This is your chance to see another side of Ibiza, as you discover the natural beauty that has long made it a popular destination for hippies and bohemians. The weather is mild enough that you can go hiking at almost any time of year, and you'll even find dog-friendly trails if you're planning a trip with your holiday with your pets to Ibiza.
Where should I stay for active holidays in Ibiza?
Ibiza's wild party scene is concentrated in the south of the island, so if you'd like to get away from it all, you're better off heading north. When choosing Ibiza for hiking, consider destinations like Portinatx, a quiet beach town that still preserves the traditional way of life. Benirràs is another good option. This has a laid-back vibe, with drumming circles on the beach every Sunday at sunset. Choose villas in Ibiza in the quiet north of the island, and you'll easily be able to escape the crowds.
The best hikes in Ibiza
Sa Talaia
If you're looking for the best hiking destinations in Ibiza, it's best to start with Sa Talaia. This is the highest point on the island, 475m above sea level. There are a few different trails to choose from, but the most popular is a 12-km loop that will take you between three and four hours to complete. Along the way, you'll wander through fig groves and pine forests, with the fragrance of wild thyme filling the air. Although this is the highest point on the island, the slope is gentle, so this route is suitable for even novice hikers.
El Far del Moscarter
Moscarter Lighthouse is the highest lighthouse in the Balearic archipelago, so it's another great choice for walking holidays in Ibiza. This route is about 12 km long, running along the cliffs that mark Ibiza's north coast. While it's not a taxing hike, you will be right next to the sea, and if you're scared of heights or prone to dizziness, it can be a little scary. The bonus? You'll have stunning sea views throughout your hike, and you'll be able to stop at Cala d'en Serra, one of the most isolated beaches on the island, with crystal-clear water that's perfect for swimming or snorkelling.
Es Portitxol
If you look for holiday lettings in Ibiza in the Portinatx area, you'll be in a great place for many hiking trails. One of the best is the route that leads to Es Portitxol. This quiet cove sits at the end of a route marked by wild blackberry bushes. You can take the full 10.8-km loop if you'd like to make a day of it. Prefer to take it easy? Walk to the beach then hop on a boat to take you back to Portinatx.
El Caló de s'Illa
This is a short route, running for just 3.5 kilometres from Benirràs beach. It's great if you just want to stretch your legs, or you're travelling with the kids. You'll stroll through a quiet pine forest, and at the end of it, a stunning reward is waiting for you: the beach of El Caló de s'Illa. This is one of the quietest coves on the entire island, where you'll be able to enjoy a dip in the clear blue waters without any crowds. It's a magical place, and even though the trail is short, it's one you'll never forget.
