Surge in mountain huts: Mallorca between nature boom and overload

Answer

Why is the Serra de Tramuntana feeling more crowded with hikers and overnight visitors?

The Serra de Tramuntana is under more pressure because more people are using Mallorca’s public refuges, campsites and recreation areas. That means fuller car parks, more waste and greater wear on paths and facilities. The challenge is not only the number of visitors, but also how to manage them without harming the area’s character.
