Ibiza Hotels, Majorca Hotels, Apartments, Accommodation

Besides the coastline with its beautiful beaches I mentioned earlier, Majorca possesses also a spectacular inside that is often overlooked. So if you want to see something different for a change, pack your hiking boots in your bag and search a Majorca hotel, because this is really a perfect way to enjoy the beautiful nature!

The Puig de Massanella is one of the highest points in Majorca, second only to the Puig Major which is a military zone and therefore not open for public. That makes the Puig de Massanella in Majorca actually the highest peak you can access. It has an height of 4,475 ft or 1,364 m.

Puig de Massanella is situated in the Serra de Tramuntana, a mountain range that covers the north-western part of Majorca. In this part of Majorca it is of course cooler and there is more condensation than in other parts of the island. You can even have some snow in the winter period! If you are a person who misses making snowmen then plan your trip to Majorca.

An interest fact as a sidenote; before the invention of refrigerators, Majorcan people used to collect snow from the mountain to cool and preserve their food and drinks and to use it as potable water.

If you are staying in your Majorca hotel and plan your hiking tour to the Puig de Massanella, I advise you to consider a guided tour with a person who has a lot of experience and knows the area well. This way you are not likely to get lost and can get the most of it. The guide can show you the best views of Majorca and you can be sure to be in good hands. Don't forget your camera to take amazing photos!

Besides the camera of course, it is recommend to bring enough food, especially enough to drink! These guided tours usually take a time, most times a few hours including breaks and hiking can be strenuous.

What many people unfortunately often forget and as a result suffer from sunburn is to bring enough sunscreen. Even if you don't burn easily in the sun! The mountains are of course nearer to the sun and therefore the sun shines much more intensely. And if there is snow, which is common during the winter as I mentioned before, the sun is reflected and the intensity rises again.

So prepare the tour carefully! Doing that, you can enjoy your vacation on Majorca as much as possible and with the least possible stress. After such a tiring experience you could go and take a walk along the beautiful Majorca beaches to have a nice picnic or go to one of the outstanding Majorca restaurants.

I am sure you already have heard of the amazing Majorca cuisine and the great variety of dishes it offers, in case you have not, don't hesitate to try it out!

As you can see, Majorca offers activities and sights for every kind of taste. The wonderful island has something to offer for people who are more adventurous as well as more relaxed people.

If you really want to see a different face of Majorca's beauty, you should go on a hiking tour to the Puig de Massanella. It offers you a breathtaking view all over the island and the sea.
