About Serra de Tramuntana
The Serra de Tramuntana runs along the north-western coast of Mallorca. FromAndratxin the west toCap Formentorin the north-east it has a length of about 50 km and a width of about 7 km. It elevates up to 1,445 m at Puig Major (which is not accessible for the public). The scenery is characterized by bizarre shaped limestone rocks, pine woods and grass, with some partly abandonedfincasin between. The most stunning feature is the many kilometers of dry stone walling, and the gnarled old olive trees some of which may be over 1,000 years old. The coastline is steep and has very few beaches. Limestone walls fall directly into the sea from a height of about 300 to 500 metres. The Serra de Tramuntana was declared aUNESCO World HeritageCultural Landscape in 2010.
