High mountain spots
Puig Major is the highest peak on Mallorca, soaring 1,445 metres tall. It is located in the Tramuntana Mountain Range within the township of Escorca.
Its secondary ridges include Penyal des Migdia, which is 60 metres lower, and Serra de Na Rius, the home to mountain spots like Sa Coma Fosca and the Morro de'n Pelut.
And in the Almallutx valley, between the slopes of Puig Major and Puig de Massanella is Gorg Blau, an artificial water reservoir. It and the Cúber reservoir have been supplying water to Palma and its environs since 1971. The stream that starts at the reservoir, called the Gorg Blau or Sa Fosca stream, flows into the Pareis stream. It was declared a natural monument by the government of the Balearic Islands in 2003.
