Event Details

At Walking Ibiza we are always looking for NEW routes so we can show you the very best of the hidden parts of the island. We only discovered this one a few weeks ago, almost entirely on paths and tracks that even we had never ventured on before! It’s a nature walk at it’s very best. Every path is different, opening up to beautiful views of inland farmland and terracing carpeted with wild flowers. But that was only the beginning! We found three ancient fonts (wells) including one painted with mysterious ancient symbols in one of the prettiest locations you can imagine! It is here that we will stop for a while to take part in a short ceremony to bless the well and the water it provides with our friend Rachel. To learn more and experience all this for yourself, join us on this fantastic NEW walk.

You can bring your own cake and drink to enjoy at the end of the walk if you wish, as Sheila can’t provide them due to the current Covid-19 restrictions.

MEETING POINT:
