NEVER-ENDING SCENIC EXCURSION
The Biniali Hike & Wine experience begins with a walking route with an easy ascent to the summit of the historic Alaró castle (822 meters above sea level), the most extraordinary rock castle* of the three that exist on the island. Once inside the castle, the panoramic views are tremendously spectacular, with views across 70% of the surface of the island of Mallorca.
*A rock castle is on a mountain with impregnable walls with only one easy access on foot. The rock on which the castle stands is always incorporated into its design.
Through a captivating introduction, you will learn about the natural, cultural and landscape values of the area you are visiting, specifically that of the Tramuntana mountain range.

The experience continues with a wine tasting (6 – 7 wines) while you taste a delicious assortment of Mallorcan products.
“The winery could be defined by its low volume and quality products as a “Boutique Winery” focused on the production and marketing of top-quality products, but maintaining as a premise the philosophy of “Less is More” so, we have a small tasting room nestled in the original “toolshed”, where we can offer tastings for small groups in a very personalized way.” Source: AVA VI Web
Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
Through an interesting introduction, you will learn about the Mallorcan wine culture, as well as the different wines that are produced in the winery.
