Selva
Selva, Balearic Islands, Spain
Selva is a small, traditional Mallorcan village tucked into the Serra de Tramuntana, characterised by stone houses, narrow cobbled streets and a peaceful rural atmosphere; it makes a restful base for scenic drives and outdoor activities away from the island’s busier coasts.
What Makes It Special
Its position in the Tramuntana offers immediate access to quiet country lanes, olive and almond groves and a network of walking and cycling routes with rewarding mountain and valley views.
Insider Tips
Park at the edge of the village and explore on foot; visit early morning or late afternoon for cooler temperatures and best light, and combine the trip with nearby Caimari to seek out traditional local olive oil producers (check opening times in advance).
