Exploring the mountain ranges each day, and witnessing the sheer beauty of valleys and peaks as far as eyes can reach. Complete a spectacular hiking challenge each day and awaken the explorer in you.
This 3-day mini challenge will delight with moderate hiking routes offering panoramic aerial views over the Serra de Tramuntana mountain range which runs southwest–northeast and forms the northern backbone of the Spanish island of Mallorca.
HIKING WITH AN ATTITUDE TO THE 1ST PEAK
The first leg of the challenge is the mountain with an attitude - the Puig de Galatzo, an almost perfectly shaped limestone cone in the southwest of the island. Rising just above a thousand meters in Serra de Tramuntana mountain range it keeps you on your toes the closer you hike to the top where the proper workout kicks in. We embrace the energy and joy of every step during a spectacular mountain trail as it takes us higher across the plateau.
ROCKY SLOPES AND PANORAMIC VIEWS AS OUR PRIZE
Once at the top, after a 500 meter elevation gain, a magical view opens up across the whole mountain range and the Mediterranean Sea. We collect 360°panorama views as our prime prize watching the whole island below our feet. A magical feeling to summit the top of this wonderful peak.
RISING ABOVE THE CLOUDS ON 2ND PEAK
The second leg of the challenge takes us to the great barren massif of the Mola d'Esclop, which lies just to the west of the Puig de Galatzo. Standing 927m high, it is a very striking peak thanks to its unique shape. The landscape is mesmerizing at each step and the route is demanding with some steep sections uphill, rewarding us along the way with incredible views of the island and the mountain range.
MAGNIFICENT MEDITERRANEAN VALLEY TRAILS
Once at the top of the summit, after a 600 meter elevation gain, we celebrate our hike with a light picnic break taking a moment to pause, catch our breaths, and marvel at the stunning scenery. The route reveals many outstanding viewpoints from the Pas d’en Ponsa and Pas des Ferros peaks. Adventure-filled day to remember forever.
COMPLETING THE CHALLENGE WITH THE 3RD PEAK
The third and final leg of the challenge takes us to a new section of the Serra de Tramuntana. As we hike to the summit of Puig de Garrafa at 461m high. A beautiful path leads us through the Mediterranean woodlands, across the hillsides right to the cliffs opening up to picturesque views over the Bay of Palma, Cabrera, Camp de Mar, Andratx port, and the coastline in the far. We complete the mini-challenge on a high note.
