Located in the northern part of Mallorca, the Alcudia Peninsula boasts a mix of landscapes, including rugged cliffs, sandy beaches, pine forests, and rural villages. This hike will allow you to connect with nature and immerse yourself in the beauty of Mallorca's northern coast.

"Sa Talaia" means watchtower, and the summit's name has its reason. At 446m above sea level remains the circular base of an old 16th-century tower and, a little further down, two huts where the soldiers took refuge during the Civil War. It was a watchtower that controlled the part of the bay that was not visible from Sa Penya Roja. Very exposed to storms and especially lightning, it was already in poor conditions when the military demolished it in 1918.

What To Expect

Ermita de la Victoria

This is the start and the finish point of this circular route. At the end of the tour the hikers will have the opportunity to visit The Hermitage La Victoria. The sanctuary is a fortified hermitage that dates back to the 18th century since its architecture gives it a defensive appearance that is a little different from the shape of the rest of the monasteries in Mallorca. Currently, the monastic complex is made up of three floors: The ground floor, where the hermitage is located, and the two upper floors, which currently form a guest house.
