What to see in Estellencs, Mallorca

Estellencs is a small coastal village on the slopes of the Serra de Tramuntana, ideal for those seeking tranquillity and contact with nature. Located between Andratx and Banyalbufar, the journey to Estellencs is an experience in itself, with a steeply curving road offering stunning views of the sea and the mountains, one of the most spectacular landscapes in Mallorca. This place stands out for its rustic charm, where the winding cobbled streets, stone houses and quiet rural life create a welcoming and authentic atmosphere.

Estellencs' heritage combines both the natural beauty of the Tramuntana and Mallorca's rich cultural heritage. Its old agricultural estates, known as possessions, and historic wash houses reflect traditional village life, while the church and stone houses add a touch of local history and architecture. Estellencs is also a paradise for hiking enthusiasts, as it is part of the famous Ruta de la Pedra en Sec (GR-221), and offers numerous routes that allow you to explore the area, such as the one that leads to the imposing Puig de Galatzó.

Apart from hiking, visitors can enjoy the calm at Cala Estellencs, a small stony cove with slipways where local fishermen keep their boats. This coastal corner is perfect for a relaxing swim after a day of hiking, or simply to enjoy the views of the Mediterranean Sea and the peace offered by this hidden refuge in the Tramuntana.
