SELVA

Selva is a picturesque village nestled in the foothills of the Tramuntana mountains in Mallorca, offering visitors an authentic and tranquil experience. Known for its traditional Mallorcan charm, Selva is surrounded by olive groves, almond trees, and vineyards, making it a popular spot for those seeking peace and natural beauty.

The village is characterized by its stone houses, narrow cobbled streets, and a beautiful main square where locals gather, especially during the weekly market. At the heart of Selva is the Church of Sant Llorenç, a 13th-century building that overlooks the village and offers panoramic views of the countryside.

Selva is also close to numerous hiking and cycling trails, making it ideal for outdoor enthusiasts. The nearby Lluc Monastery, a revered pilgrimage site, is accessible by a scenic mountain route and is well worth a visit.

Selva’s annual herb fair in May, known as “Fira de Ses Herbes,” celebrates the island’s herbs and medicinal plants with displays, workshops, and local crafts. This event highlights the region's deep connection to nature and tradition, offering visitors an insight into Mallorcan heritage. Selva is a hidden gem for those looking to experience the quieter, more authentic side of Mallorca.
