Experiences Can Ribera Muro, Mallorca

Some of the most important wine-producing areas can be found on the Binissalem wine trail, including some of the towns in the heart of the island and located just 15 minutes from Can Ribera: Binissalem, Sencelles, Santa Maria del Camí, Santa Eugènia and Consell. Taste the unbeatable wines made by wineries such as Jose Luís Ferrer, Bodega Biniagual, Bodega Ribas, Macià Batle and Tianna Negre, among others. And don’t forget the wineries in Santa Margalida such as Vins Galmés y Ribot, Miquel Oliver and Bodegas Butxet.

Some of the wineries are currently producing some of the best wines in Spain. Having started out as family businesses, they have now made Mallorcan wine another international representative of Mallorcan culture and cuisine. So one of the things you really must do during your visit is take a tour of the incredible wineries in the island interior. Raise a glass to Mallorca!

From Can Ribera you get great views and proximity to the incredible Serra de Tramuntana mountains which cover the entire north of the island. Mountains such as Puig Major, Tomir, Galatzó or Massanella allow you to discover spectacular locations and cliffs along routes with different degrees of difficulty.

The most recommended route for experts or amateurs alike is the GR 221 - Dry Stone Wall Route (Ruta De La Pedra En Sec), a network of trails crossing the mountain range from west to north over a distance of around 110km.

The island also offers thousands of hikes that can end with a refreshing dip in the water of one of the island’s amazing coves and beaches. The route from Torrent de Pareis to Sa Calobra or from Port de Pollensa to Cala Boquer or from Sant Elm to La Trapa, are just some of the ones we would recommend if you want to see Mallorca from a different perspective.

Mallorca has almost 550 kilometres of coast and is one of the most attractive and important islands in the Mediterranean, with locations of incalculable beauty, beaches with fine white sand, rocky cliffs, pine and palm trees and forests, in addition to crystal-clear waters and a wide range of water sports such as windsurfing, diving, surfing or sailing.

Stop the clock and enjoy a day sailing around the island and discovering the beautiful northern coast of Mallorca. One of the best sailing routes near our boutique hotel is from Puerto de Pollença or the famous international marina in Alcudia to an area known as Es Caló, very near Colonia de Sant Pere.

We invite you to drop anchor here in the Mediterranean and end your day watching the sunset over Formentor and one of the most beautiful viewpoints in all of Spain: Es Colomer.

They are an excellent place to buy fresh, local products such as sobrasada, cheese and typical sausages. The markets are also full of the hustle and bustle of local life, perfect for visitors who would like to find out more about the roots of this island and the local lifestyle, getting closer to the authentic atmosphere of island markets and the Mallorcan people.

There are also markets selling handicrafts, handbags, jewellery... and handmade products such as ceramics and Mallorcan fabrics, leather goods or wicker.

If you like the sound of that, we invite you to discover the Muro market held every Sunday in the Plaza Comte d'Empùries. You should also visit the Sunday market in Pollença, considered one of the most important on the island, and the markets in Santa Maria (also on Sunday), Sineu (Wednesday) and Inca (Thursday).
