Puigpunyent Weather
Today's weather in Puigpunyent
Right now it's 27.6 °C under overcast skies, feeling like about 29.6 °C — warm, but not blazing. Temperatures in Puigpunyent will range today from a low of 24.3 °C to a high of around 31.7 °C, with light winds near 5.4 km/h and only a 6% chance of rain.
During the day it will remain mostly cloudy; the clouds will mute the sun, making the heat more bearable. A few sunny breaks are possible, and the highest temperatures are expected later on. With this gentle breeze it's pleasant outside, but it's still worth seeking out shade. If you'll be out for a while, take plenty of water and plan for shaded breaks.
A day for hiking
Given today's weather in Puigpunyent, a shorter hiking route in the Tramuntana is a good choice; the cloud cover makes steeper climbs more tolerable. Alternatively, an afternoon stop at a finca is a lovely option — many finca hotels have shaded terraces or pools, ideal for relaxing after exploring the village. Local tip: a small, rather little-known path above the village is one of the Tramuntana's best-kept secrets and is especially worth checking out right now.
Tomorrow will be sunny with around 30.9 °C, so remember to bring sun protection.

Climate in Puigpunyent — A Valley in the Shadow of the Tramuntana
Puigpunyent sits in a valley basin of the Serra de Tramuntana, at an elevation of 222 m, sheltered by the surrounding mountain slopes. The municipality is among the wettest parts of the island — a consequence of its proximity to the mountains and the orographic effect of the Tramuntana.
No direct climate normals are available for Puigpunyent. For reference: Palma at sea level records 449 mm of annual precipitation according to AEMET data, and around 512 mm according to aggregator data. For Puigpunyent at 222 m on the edge of the Tramuntana, precipitation values are expected to be higher — but no reliable concrete figures exist for this station. November is the rainiest month in this part of the island as well; summers are dry here too (Palma reference: around 9 mm in July).
Summers in the valley basin are warm, but somewhat cooler than on the coast. Palma reaches daily highs of around 31°C in July — Puigpunyent at 222 m stays a bit below that on hot days, thanks to the elevation and the shade cast by the mountain slopes. Without a dedicated weather station, no reliable figures can be cited; the qualitative assessment is: more comfortable in summer than the flat coastal towns.
In winter, the valley basin acts as a cold-air sink: cold air drains down from the mountain slopes into the valley and can produce unusually low temperatures on clear, calm nights. Palma's reference mean daily temperature in January is around 10–11°C — Puigpunyent likely falls somewhat below that depending on weather conditions. Frost is more common than on the coast, but not the norm.
The municipality also encompasses the higher-lying village of Galilea, which is even more strongly influenced by Tramuntana winds and elevated precipitation.

Note on data sources: Puigpunyent has no dedicated AEMET climate normal station. Where figures appear in the text, they are coastal proxy values from Palma (T3 source); for Puigpunyent, they serve as qualitative guidance only.
