Updated

Puigpunyent is located on the south-west of the island. This walk provides some magnificient scenery without having to leave the road, which goes from Capdellà to Puigpunyent. The route takes in a series of ascents and descents, and cuts across woods and fields, with different views at each curve of the road.

The views of the mountains Galatzó are incredible as you pass the hill of "Sa Mola" and the "Pla des Pins" before reaching Galilea, from where you can see the bay of Penye Rotges and the Malgrats island. The road continues on through the property of Son Claret, to Capdellà and the end of the hike. The distance is 12 kilometres.
