Answer

What should I do if fog suddenly comes in while hiking in Mallorca?

Stop and reassess the route instead of pushing on blindly. In Mallorca’s Tramuntana, visibility can drop very quickly, so it is often safer to turn back or wait if the path becomes hard to follow. Keep your phone charged, use a map or GPS, and let someone know your planned route before setting out.
