It took around 45 mins to walk to the top. Take a bottle of water! Lovely views of the surrounding area. Nice little cafe at the top with reasonable prices and good food, though many people were prepared with their own picnics. More

On this small hill with stunning views there is a monastery with a long history, and a small family restaurant to eat a good rice. We enjoyed it greatly More

Stay the night in one of the no-frills but characterful rooms, set your alarm, then watch the astonishing panorama of mountain and sea emerge at sunrise. You'll not regret it! More

I am in love with the Northern part of Majorca (hence all the great reviews I have written). Puig de st Maria or de Pollenca is something that you should do if you are in the area! It is an easy walk (do it after siesta time so 6/7pm in the summer) as it is not too hot and there... More

We decided to take this walk after reading about it in a Trip Advosor post, wanting something a bit different to the Calvary steps (which I also recommend). It took approx. 50 minutes to complete the walk to the summit: 30 minutes of steep,... More
