Answer

When can it snow in Mallorca's mountains?

Snow in Mallorca is most likely in the higher parts of the island when colder air arrives and the snow line drops. The Tramuntana can see snow at relatively modest heights compared with mainland mountain regions, while lower areas may only get cold rain. Even if snow does not settle in towns, the mountain roads can still be affected by icy or difficult conditions.
