The footsteps of the ancient gods

This mesmerizing hike follows forest and coast paths through raw, primitive and untouched landscapes in the far northeast of Ibiza. We will experience spectacular views, incredible swimming spots and an extraordinary rock arch, before discovering the sacred cave of Es Cuilleram. This Punic sanctuary, some 150m above sea level, is where Ibiza’s ancient population worshipped Tanit, their Mother Goddess, in a natural cavern with otherworldly views out across the Mediterranean towards the islet of Tagomago. We will sit in silence and solitude and soak up the transformational energy of this most sacred of locations.

They usually follow well-marked countryside caminos or coastal paths with minimal elevation gain. These hikes can be tailored to suit families, children and those with varying levels of fitness.

Intermediate Level.

No technical skill is required but these hikes may include sharp ascents and descents and cover rough terrain that offers more of a challenge. These hikes are suitable for hikers with a medium level of cardiovascular fitness and good sense of agility and balance. There may be avoidable areas of exposed heights unsuitable for those with vertigo.

Advanced Level.

These difficult trails will cover all types of terrain including loose shale underfoot and sections of coast which are particularly steep, rocky and slippery. There may be sections which are largely exposed, involve steep steps or ropes and have significant elevation gain. These hikes require a higher-than-average level of fitness and endurance and a resilient, positive mindset.

Expert Level.

These steep trails are physically taxing and hard to follow. Hikers may be required to ascend exposed cliff faces or descend using ropes. Routes will be rocky, climbing may be required and an expert level of agility and balance will be needed.
