Hiking
In the former monastery on the summit above the fortress ruins there is now a mountain hut. For a few euros you can stay up here in simple bunk beds with a unique view. In the bar of the mountain hut, day hikers can also get a hot coffee in winter or a cool drink in summer. All supplies for the guests are brought up the mountain in an environmentally friendly manner by the two curious donkeys.

Hiking
The Castell d'Alaró is not only famous as a historical place, but also as the destination of the most beautiful hiking routes in Mallorca. The ascent takes you over easy to moderately difficult routes through the breathtaking Tramuntana mountains. On the 822 meter high castle you can enjoy a panoramic view as far as Palma.

Hiking
You can already see the mighty ruins of the Castell d'Alaró on the mountain peak of the Puig d'Alaró from afar. It was first mentioned in 902 when the Moors seized power over Mallorca. The fortress was considered impregnable for centuries and is still a symbol of freedom in the cultural memory of the islanders. The castle has been an official Spanish cultural monument since 1931.
