Sa' Calobra
Wilderness house of canyons and more...
Sa' Calobra is a cove belonging to the spanish municipality of Escorca in Palma de Mallorca. It lies right in the middle of Tramontana Mountain Range as well as it is a very turistic place whose name comes from a near and old small village. The cove is the Pareis River estuary and is shaped by boulders. It is one of the few access to the sea in Tramontana's area. In 2003, because of its luxuriant wildlife, it was declared 'Natural Monument' from the 'Balearic Government'. The Pareis River took thousands and thousands of years to dig its bed to flow to the sea and right close to the estuary the cliffs go beyond 200 metres of height. This fact makes the cove turn into an auditorium where once per year you can find the 'Concert of Sa' Calobra'. In order to get to this amazing thriving place you need to go through more than 80 tight bends and narrow roads on the brink of precipices.
