Puig de na Franquesa
Description
Puig de na Franquesa is a mountain summit rising to 1,067 metres in the municipality of Escorca, set right in the heart of the Serra de Tramuntana.
The Summit
At 1,067 metres, Puig de na Franquesa rewards you with panoramic views in every direction — including sweeping vistas across the reservoirs and the surrounding peaks of the Serra de Tramuntana. The ascent is considered manageable, while the descent is notably more demanding.
Routes & Combinations
The easiest way to reach the summit is from the Coll de l'Ofre. Particularly rewarding is the circular route starting from the Cuber reservoir, taking in the Coll de l'Ofre, Puig de l'Ofre, Puig de na Franquesa and Puig de sa Rateta before returning to Cuber — a multi-summit outing for which sturdy footwear and plenty of water are strongly recommended. Puig de na Franquesa also features as Route 34 in the current edition of the Rother Walking Guide.
