Mallorca, Spain: the adventurous side!

I love sports that can be enjoyed in the great outdoors, surrounded by nature so I was over the moon that our first full day of the blog trip would be spent trekking in the Tramuntana Mountain Range a (UNESCO world heritage site) which runs 90KM along the entire Northwestern coast of the island. About an hours drive from the seaside resort of Soller, we commenced our day trek with a warm welcome from the donkeys who were ready and waiting for us at the entrance to the Park.
