WALKS

Lloseta is located in the Raiguer region and as a result offers a wide array of walks which start at the town centre and soon lead up to the first mountains of the Tramuntana range. The highest mountains closest to the town are puig de s'Alcadena, the Alaró Castle, puig de Sant Miquel, Tossals Verds and puig de sa Creu. Even though not all of them belong to the municipality of Lloseta, due to their proximity many hikers start the walks in Lloseta.

1. Lloseta-Mancor-Biniamar-Lloseta

The walk starts in plaça de Lloseta. Pass by the cemetery and head towards the estate of s'Estorell. Before arriving to the estate houses, walk through an almold tree grove and turn left up to the old houses of s'Estorell. Walk for 30 minutes to reach the houses. From here you can admire a great view with the plains of Mallorca visible through the crack of the Almandrà stream.
Follow the trail north, rising continuously through farmed land. It will take you 30 minutes to reach the Nova fountain, just after a small mountain hut. It is a good place to have a bite and admire thoroughly the mountain of s'Alcadena, towering in front of you. Follow the trail for three more bends and take a slightly hidden path starting in a thick holm oak forest in the land of Can Xalet.
Cross a small barrier. The trail rises constantly leading to Cases Noves, one hour away from the Nova fountain. On the way down to Mancor, along the track, you will find the Font Garrover, an estate located in the comellar de l'lnfern. The trail is flanked by old olive trees. 30 minutes later, after a steep descent, you will reach the village of Mancor de la Vall, along the trail leading to Santa Llúcia.
Turn right towards the land of Biniamar. At the top, the road turns into a track. Cross a barrier to enter Biniatzent, where you can stop to admire the fountain of en Patró. Continue walking down along the trail passing by the houses and crossing the communal forest of Biniamar, between Plana Forana and Montaura. Reach Biniamar after one hour. Cross it heading to Lloseta. After four hours, the walk finishes along a very varied trail through holm oak forests and olive and almond tree groves. The walk climbs up and down the hills and requires some degree of fitness if you do not want to struggle at the end.

2. Puig de Lloseta

The walk starts at the Lloseta main square. Walk to the el Puig football pitch. Take the trail passing by the municipal swimming pool. A hundred metres further on, turn left following the trail up to the peak of the puig de Lloseta. The steep trail soon offers excellent views of the plains of Mallorca with towns dotting the plains and Inca, the largest town, in the foreground. The trail is easy to follow and after one hour walking up through the pine forest you will reach several old water deposits that mark the point were you must leave the rising trail. Turn west along a footpath around the summit leading to the opposite face. The puig des Rafalet is located just in front.
Walk down and 30 minutes later you will reach the farm of Son Daviu. A cistern with a stone neck is visible to the left. Go to the cistern and walk up for a short while. Reach the simple, isolated houses, which reflect the rustic character of the people of the mountains.
Walk down west along a steep trail. It passes next to the penya Roja and leads to the land of s'Estorell. The road to the left leads to the cemetery, in Lloseta. Reach the main square. The walk takes 3 hours. It is a plesant walk around Lloseta. Hike up the trail at the beginning at your own pace. It offers an extensive view of the plains of Mallorca.
