Answer
Can weather in Mallorca make a mountain hike more dangerous?
Yes. Even mild weather can give hikers a false sense of security, especially on steep mountain paths where loose stones or narrow sections add risk. In Mallorca, a sunny morning does not automatically mean a trail is safe or easy. Conditions on the ground matter more than the forecast alone.
