Refugis

The Consell de Mallorca established a number of excellent refugis, generally by restoring old buildings and equipping them to a high standard. In terms of services and facilities, they are like very good hostels, with beds in dormitories. They are certainly grander than the average Alpine refuge and are extremely good value. Since being established, some of the refugis continue to be administered centrally by the Consell, while others are run independently. In a few places, privately-owned refugis have opened, and a couple of long-established pilgrim hostels, or hostatgerias, are also available.

The Refugi de Son Amer is surrounded by forested slopes (Alternative finish F)

Mallorcans were very quick to take advantage of such economic yet quality accommodation, so weekends tend to be particularly busy with family groups. Trekkers who want a quieter experience would be well advised to avoid holiday periods and weekends, and use the refugis on less busy weekdays wherever possible.
