Father and Son Missing in the Tramuntana: Why Hikers Keep Getting Lost in the Mountains

Answer

Why is the MA-10 area in Mallorca often linked to hiking rescues?

The MA-10 runs through some of the most dramatic and challenging mountain scenery in Mallorca, so it gives access to routes that can be difficult in poor weather or low light. It is also an area where visitors may underestimate how serious the terrain becomes away from the road. Good preparation matters just as much there as in any other part of the Tramuntana.
