Climate in Biniaraix — Gorge and Tramuntana
Biniaraix is a small mountain village at the entrance to the Barranc de Biniaraix, one of Mallorca's best-known hiking gorges. Its position at 162 m above sea level in the narrow valley of the Serra de Tramuntana has a noticeable effect on the climate: whatever weather arrives here comes as a concentrated expression of Tramuntana influence — more rainfall than on the plains, more shade from the rock faces, and noticeably more humidity in winter than on the coast.
No dedicated climate station data exists for Biniaraix. The nearest reference point is the Sóller valley, about 2 km away and 103 m lower in elevation. According to climate data from that area, the region receives around 590 mm of rainfall annually — more than Palma. For Biniaraix itself, which is more directly exposed to the mountain slope, precipitation is likely similar or regionally somewhat higher. November is the wettest month, with around 90 mm.
In summer, Biniaraix is defined by the gorge: the narrow rock walls of the Barranc provide shade, making the path through the ravine pleasant even on warm July days. Outside the gorge — in the open village — daytime highs in July reach around 30°C according to regional climate data. Dryness is pronounced: July is the driest month, with around 10 mm.
Anyone using Biniaraix as a starting point for the hike through the Barranc should be aware of the seasonal rainfall pattern: from October through December, heavy rain can make the Barranc impassable — checking a dry-weather forecast before heading out is advisable. In winter, average daily temperatures in the region hover around 10°C, and the gorge is often shady and damp.
The nearest coast is the bay of Port de Sóller, about 3 km away. Sea temperatures there reach around 25°C in July. From Biniaraix, the walk to the sea via the Sóller valley is doable on foot — for many hikers, it's the natural way to finish the Barranc route.
Note on data sources: No dedicated climate station data exists for Biniaraix. The figures are derived from T3 climate data for the Sóller valley and should be treated as approximate reference values.
