Hiking in Mallorca from Palma: The Ultimate Guide to the Serra de Tramuntana

Mountains, stone paths, villages and spectacular routes. With Palma as your base. Mallorca is known around the world for its beaches. But drive just a short distance from Palma and you will discover another island. A vertical island. Made of stone. Olive trees. Ravines. Holm oak forests. Ancient paths. Villages built between mountains. Mountain refuges. Peaks. And trails crossing some of the most spectacular landscapes in the Mediterranean. Welcome to the Serra de Tramuntana . And this is our first recommendation: You do not need to choose between Palma and the mountains. You can have both. Sleep in Palma. Have breakfast overlooking the bay. Head towards the Serra.

For us, this combination is one of the best ways to experience Mallorca. Your base is Palma. The mountains begin every morning. Palma: Gateway to...
