Reserva Natural de La Trapa

Parks and Nature

La Trapa Nature Reserve is an estate located in the southwest corner of the Tramuntana mountain range. It is named after the presence of the Trappist monks, who settled in the valley around 1810. During their stay, they built a monastery, created a system of water supply through water collection mines and built terraces and walls, following the traditional dry stone technique. In La Trapa you can find elements of traditional architecture such as the houses of the old monastery and the remains of a chapel, the mill, the threshing floor... But, of obliged visit is the viewpoint, an exceptional balcony overlooking the island Dragonera, which looks like a dragon coming out of the sea.
