Tripadvisdor Review – April 2019

Fabulous short break

This is our third stay at la Pergola and was a lovely short break before the Easter rush. We upgraded to half board before we travelled and feel we got value for money. The hotel is very clean and the staff very friendly…

Tripadvisdor Review – April 2019

Wonderful

We stayed here whilst walking the GR221 for a little bit of luxury and that is exactly what we got. Watching the sunset made it extra special.

Autumn hiking, the other side of the Tramontana mountain range

Autumn hiking, the other side of the Tramontana mountain range

When autumn arrives, the Tramuntana Mountains, the imposing mountain range that stretches along Mallorca's northwest, transform into an ideal destination for hiking enthusiasts. Free from the summer crowds, this season offers the chance to explore one of the island's natural treasures in a quieter and more authentic way.

The Tramuntana Mountain Range, a rugged massif recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2011, boast exceptional beauty and ecological significance. In autumn, the landscape dazzles with a palette of colors ranging from ochre to deep red, creating a one-of-a-kind visual spectacle.

One of the main attractions of hiking in autumn is the opportunity to enjoy the scenery without the stifling heat of summer. With daytime temperatures ranging between 15-20°C (59-68°F), the milder weather makes hikes more enjoyable. Additionally, the reduction in tourists allows for a more intimate and relaxing experience with nature.

The Tramuntana Mountains and Their Main Hiking Trails

The Tramuntana Mountains offer numerous hiking trails to explore their diverse landscapes. Among the most popular is the Deià to Sóller Route, a 12-kilometer (7.5-mile) trail that winds through ancient mountain paths, passing traditional villages and offering breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea.

Another fascinating option is the GR 221 Route, also known as the "Dry Stone Route." This long-distance trail spans approximately 170 kilometers (105 miles) across the entire Tramuntana range, taking hikers deep into hidden corners and showcasing the area's diverse landscapes.

Beyond panoramic views, autumn hiking in the Tramuntana Mountains provides the chance to discover Mallorca's rich natural and cultural heritage. Along the trails, you'll encounter centuries-old olive groves, abandoned water mills, small chapels, and other remnants of the past that transport you to bygone eras.

The flora undergoes a vibrant transformation in autumn, with bursts of color across the vegetation. Endemic species like Mallorcan heather, thyme, and wild lavender line the paths, filling the air with unique fragrances. Wildlife spotting is also a highlight, with chances to see native species such as the booted eagle, Eleonora’s falcon, or the golden long-eared bat.

Enriching the Experience

The villages nestled in the Tramuntana Mountains—like Deià, Valldemossa, or Sóller—offer opportunities to savor local gastronomy and experience the charm of traditional Mallorcan architecture. After a day of hiking, there's nothing better than indulging in typical dishes such as tumbet (a vegetable medley), sopa mallorquina (a hearty bread-based soup), or artisanal cured meats, all paired with a fine wine from the Binissalem appellation.

A Unique Perspective on Mallorca

Hiking through the Tramuntana Mountains in autumn reveals a different, more authentic side of Mallorca. Away from the crowds, you can immerse yourself in nature at its most splendid, explore unique landscapes, connect with local culture, and savor exceptional cuisine. Undoubtedly, this experience will remain etched in your memory as one of the true treasures of this Mediterranean island.
