The hermitage represents centuries of spiritual devotion in the region, with structures that reflect the long tradition of religious sites established across the mountainous terrain following the Christian reconquest.
Local pilgrims and visitors often incorporate visits to hermitages into their exploration of the area's spiritual heritage, connecting religious practice with the natural environment of the mountains.
The hermitage is accessible via mountain roads that wind through the Serra de Tramuntana, and visitors should bring appropriate footwear and clothing for variable mountain weather conditions.
