Walk from Inca to Hermitage of Santa Magdalena
Market town and a sanctuary in the middle of Mallorca
Inca can be reached either by train from Palma or by car. If you go to Inca on a Thursday, you'll be able to enjoy one of Mallorca's biggest and best markets.
Inca is known for its wine cellars. The town, like its neighbouring municipality of Binissalem, was a mass producer of wine from the 17th to 19th centuries when phylloxera destroyed the industry and its inhabitants turned to other activities such as tanning and leather craftmanship.
