We took route 13 to the summit and only met two cows, four mules and one fellow hiker. When encountering animals larger than me in the wild I‘m always happy that my wife is a veterinarian and constantly at my side! <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/HamRadio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HamRadio</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/SummitsOnTheAir" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SummitsOnTheAir</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/Amateurfunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Amateurfunk</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/qrp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>qrp</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/morsecode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>morsecode</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/hiking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hiking</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/mountains" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mountains</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/20m" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>20m</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/qcxmini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>qcxmini</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/elecraftax2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>elecraftax2</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/Mallorca" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mallorca</span></a></p>
Philipp DK3IP<p><a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/SOTA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SOTA</span></a> EA6/MA-052 Puig de Maria is a 45 minutes hike starting at a big parking lot in <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/Pollen%C3%A7a" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pollença</span></a>. The view of the city and the island is getting better with every meter you climb. On top is a monastery with a shrine for the Virgin Mary built in 1348 (for protection against the Black Death epidemic), but unfortunately it was closed today. Against plague I’d recommend Ciprofloxacin or Doxycycline… <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/HamRadio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HamRadio</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/SummitsOnTheAir" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SummitsOnTheAir</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/Amateurfunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Amateurfunk</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/qrp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>qrp</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/morsecode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>morsecode</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/hiking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hiking</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/mountains" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mountains</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/20m" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>20m</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/qcxmini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>qcxmini</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/Mallorca" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mallorca</span></a></p>

It also contains Necròpolis de Son Real, a grave field from the seventh century B. C. directly at the Mediterranean Sea. Despite being very near the touristic centers on Mallorca’s East coast it’s not crowded with tourists and easy to activate. <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/20m" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>20m</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/HamRadio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HamRadio</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/Amateurfunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Amateurfunk</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/qrp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>qrp</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/qcxmini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>qcxmini</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/morsecode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>morsecode</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/hiking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hiking</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/elecraftax2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>elecraftax2</span></a> <a href="https://social.darc.de/tags/Mallorca" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mallorca</span></a></p>
