Why go
Begin at Jardins d'Alfàbia and nearby Raixa Estate while the lower Tramuntana is still quiet. Continue to the Royal Charterhouse of Valldemossa for the day’s substantial interior visit, then follow the coast toward Son Marroig. Robert Graves’s house in Deià is an optional final stop because its controlled access and the mountain roads can tighten the schedule. This itinerary works best with a car and modest expectations about distance: the places are close on a map, yet parking, village approaches and slow bends make the route a full day.
