The weather forecast was terrible, wind and high rain all day long. From talking to other hikers it sounds like the trail down is a few kilometers of trail, then lots of road walking. The couple from Madrid found a bus from somewhere along the way and were planning on hiking there, then taking the […]
Tossals Verds to Refugi Son Amer 08.03.2024 we woke up to rain, but the forecast said it was going to clear up and get windy. We decided we’d rather deal with wind than rain, also the hike is only about 16 km or 5 hours (not that we trust those estimations anymore), so we had […]

Finca Ses Fontanelles to Banyalbufar 04.03.2024 Breakfast at the finca was ok, nothing compared to the dinner the night before, we hung out with Cat and Phillip again at breakfast. Mallorca seems to run late (although possibly just because it’s off season), breakfast is at 8 everywhere, but it seems dinner is later too. As […]
Getting started 03.03.2024 Normally for my birthday I like to take a ski trip, but the weather in most of Europe has been extremely warm and there’s little snow in the area, so we started looking at alternatives. It turns out Ryanair flies to Mallorca and depending on the days flights can be very cheap. […]
