You begin on the broad circular ramparts of Bellver Castle, the sea and Palma’s port fanning out beneath you, while pine-scented wind pushes the first clues toward your pockets. The game drops you into a lost chapter of the city—when Bellver served as a prison—and then sends you downhill, into forest trails and the tightly packed arteries of the old town.

You begin on the broad circular ramparts of Bellver Castle, the sea and Palma’s port fanning out beneath you, while pine-scented wind pushes the first clues toward your pockets. The game drops you into a lost chapter of the city—when Bellver served as a prison—and then sends you downhill, into forest trails and the tightly packed arteries of the old town.
Bellver is one of Europe’s rare circular Gothic castles, built in the early 14th century for King Jaume II and later repurposed as a military site and prison. Geologically, the castle dominates a low limestone outcrop surrounded by a man-made pinewood, offering clear views of the Bay of Palma and the tramuntana foothills. The quest threads historical sites, local markets and a municipal park, moving from stone battlements to narrow alleys, past La Seu cathedral vistas and into the Mercado’s bustling stalls.
Culturally the route highlights Palma’s blend of maritime trade and Catalan-Majorcan traditions: olive oil, sobrassada sellers and bar terraces hum at the route’s edges. The experience is self-guided via the Questo app—download before you start—and requires entry to Bellver for the opening chapter.
Practical guidance: expect roughly 3–4 km of walking with ~100–150 m of cumulative elevation gain, allow 2–3 hours to linger at viewpoints and markets, wear sturdy shoes, carry water and a phone power bank, and start in the morning or late afternoon to avoid peak sun. The format suits couples, families and teams looking for a playful, outdoor city exploration at their own pace.
