Betlem Hermitage

Highlight • Religious Site

The Betlem hermitage is in one of the quietest areas of Mallorca, located on a balcony with spectacular views and open to the nearby bay of Alcúdia. To get to the hermitage, you have to walk along a beautiful path surrounded by cypress trees. From here, you can access many hiking routes.

We didn't like the tour because half the way is on the road, i.e. asphalt.

We had originally planned to hike Puig de la Creu and la Talaia Freda, but the route is closed from January to June due to the breeding season. However, the spontaneous alternative, which you can follow here, is a more than magnificent and scenic alternative—if not even more breathtaking and varied.

A beautiful hike with lots of great views. The path is often very rocky and requires surefootedness and the right footwear. Otherwise it's not particularly demanding and not long. The tour is easily suitable for a half-day tour.
