A shorter, steeper approach to Son Puig, starting in Calvià with the south-western Tramuntana laid out ahead.
Good for anyone reasonably fit and happy with a few hours on their feet over uneven ground. No special experience needed.
The day begins in Calvià village and climbs — gently at first through a smart residential edge with wide views and striking houses, then more steeply on a mix of road, track and path, about 250 m up. Up top the route mellows into a wide, easy track along ancient terraces, quiet and remote after the busier start.
A country lane then takes you down the valley towards Puigpunyent and on to Son Puig — a manor house in about seven hectares of vines, run by the family that owns it. You finish with a guided visit to the bodega and vineyard and your choice of tasting, the home-made tapas as much a part of it as the wine.
Guide’s tipThe climb out of Calvià is the hardest part and it’s early; after that it’s easy terrace tracks all the way to the vines. Choose the guided tasting for the tapas.
