Torrent de Pareis
The Torrent de Pareis is one of the most impressive natural phenomena of Mallorca. The dramatic gorge in the northwest of the island, located in the municipality of Escorca, has been carved into the limestone landscape of the Serra de Tramuntana over millions of years through erosion. With its vertical rock walls soaring up to 200 meters high and narrow stretches that are only a few meters wide, it offers a breathtaking backdrop. In 2003, the gorge was officially declared a natural monument and has since become a popular destination for adventurers and nature lovers.
Hiking through the Gorge – For Experienced Hikers Only
Hiking through the Torrent de Pareis is a challenge and is considered one of the most demanding hikes in Mallorca. The starting point is usually Escorca, from where one hikes about five kilometers through rough terrain, past large boulders and climbing sections, heading towards Sa Calobra. The tour requires not only physical fitness but also sure-footedness, the ability to handle heights, and good equipment. Especially after heavy rain, one should be careful, as the gorge can quickly fill with water and become impassable.
