Fire map for the Tramuntana: What the new 142-hectare plan leaves unresolved
The Risks of Roadside Clearing in the Tramuntana
Roadside fire prevention in Mallorca’s Tramuntana may help access, but it must avoid erosion and habitat loss.
Published: April 22, 2026
Answer
What is the concern about roadside clearing near places like Coll de Sóller or Deià?
Roadside clearing can improve access and reduce fuel, but it can also create erosion or damage habitats if it is done too aggressively. In places like Coll de Sóller or the slopes above Deià, the method matters as much as the goal, because the Tramuntana is a fragile landscape.
