Well-known excursion and hiking destination, accordingly heavily frequented. In addition to the well-frequented gastronomy, there is also a rest area with tables and benches for a less expensive rest. It is much quieter in the monastery chapel than in the back part of the monastery with the gastronomy and the rest area.

The formation of Mount Randa:
An old legend tells that a long time ago a giant crossed the Mediterranean Sea from Algiers. He carried a basket full of stones and earth on his head, and he had tied a ship under his feet so that he would not sink. During a storm off Cabrera, both ships drifted apart and, in order not to lose his balance, he braced himself with his stick on the shore of Cala Pi. But it didn't help, he fell anyway and the contents of his basket spilled out onto the plains of Mallorca. This is where Randa Mountain came from. And from a drop of sweat that hit the ground next to the mountain, the Na Tomasa spring was born.
But that's just a legend, the real story is much scarier:
Mount Randa is hollow inside and supported by four golden pillars. Should the pillars break, not only the mountain but all of Mallorca will collapse. And not only that, "The waves of the sea will crash over Mallorca, and that will be the end of the world," says the phophecy. The Mallorcans say that three of the pillars are already broken and the fourth is damaged.

This very popular destination is located on the top of the monastery mountain. Among other things, the magnificent view at this spiritual place makes the Santuari de Cura so unique. There are restaurants and accommodation here. The ascent via a hike to the monastery mountain is recommended.

On the hike to the monastery mountain komoot.de/tour/163162455/embed you will pass this small rest area or great viewpoint. From here you have a great view of the south or southeast of Mallorca.
