Puig de Galatzó, Mountain summit in western Mallorca, Spain

The limestone peak of Puig de Galatzó rises to 1027 meters above sea level, featuring steep gullies and exposed ridges across its northern face.

During the Middle Ages, the mountain slopes of Puig de Galatzó served as hideouts for bandits who used the complex terrain to escape authorities.

The mountain connects three municipalities - Puigpunyent, Calvià, and Estellencs - where local artisans create works influenced by the surrounding landscapes.

The ascent starts from Puigpunyent through a marked trail at Font des Pi, requiring sturdy footwear and water supplies for the six-hour round trip.

The mountain hosts specific karst formations with towers, vertical walls, and canyons that provide habitats for Balearic mountain goats and red-legged partridges.
