STAGES * The starting point of the GR 221 in Port d'Andratx and the two first stages have some problems and the opening of the mountain hut in la Trapa isn't planned. It will be some years until the "main route" of the GR 221 is opened. * On the other side, the mountain hut Galatzó is open sice december 2022. The route from Es Capdellà to Estellencs goes by this hut, is signposted (alt. section of the GR 221) and could become the main route of the GR 221 in the next years. |
