When is the best season to walk from Palma to Soller along the coast?

Deciding when to walk between Palma and Sóller depends on how you like your weather and crowds. From late April through early October, the temperatures are warm but usually not stifling, making this period ideal for enjoying the rugged Tramuntana scenery and fragrant pine forests along the Ma-10 road. Springtime brings wildflowers bursting with color, while early summer offers long, sun-drenched days perfect for exploring coves like Cala Deià or stopping in quaint villages without the chill of colder months.

If you prefer cooler air and fewer tourists, late September through early November is a fantastic choice. The heat softens, and the crowds thin out, especially after the summer high season ends. Autumn’s golden light highlights olive groves and almond trees, which are particularly stunning around Valldemossa and Fornalutx. Keep in mind that rain showers become more frequent in November, so packing for changing weather is wise. Whether you set off in spring or autumn, the trail between these towns offers breathtaking views of the coastline and the chance to savor local treats like pa amb oli or a glass of Binissalem wine along the way.
