Answer

What are monumental trees in Mallorca and why would they be registered?

Monumental trees are especially old, large or historically important trees that form part of Mallorca’s natural and cultural heritage. Registering them would help protect them and make their conservation more visible. In the Serra de Tramuntana, this fits with the broader goal of preserving the landscape as a living heritage site.
