Highlights
The year is 1805. You are Gaspar Melchor de Jovellanos, and after seven years in Castle Bellver, you have escaped. But freedom is not yet yours, you must sneak back inside to find a map leading to the port and a ship off the island. Navigate 14 stops from the castle through the Bellver Forest, past a chapel, down through Santa Catalina's streets and market, to the harbour. Decode Latin inscriptions, count Roman guardians, crack passwords, and read a sundial to learn your escape date. Download the Questo app, activate your quest with the booking code, and start at Castle Bellver's parking area. No guide, no schedule, explore at your own pace. Every stop reveals Palma's history: Europe's only circular castle, a forest hiding a witch's legend, a 900 sq metre hotel mural, and a Civil War memorial debated under Spain's memory law. Best in the morning. Perfect for couples or history lovers visiting Mallorca. About 3 hours, 14 stops from castle to harbour.

About Mallorca
Mallorca is the largest of Spain's Balearic Islands, with a Gothic cathedral in Palma, a rugged north-west mountain range and coves of clear water.
Mallorca lies in the western Mediterranean, an island of limestone mountains, almond and olive groves and a long, indented coast. Palma, the capital, is dominated by La Seu, a Gothic cathedral that rises over the bay, and by the Almudaina Palace beside it; the circular Bellver Castle looks down from a forested hill. The old town has quiet courtyards, boutiques and tapas bars.
Top-ranked sights in Mallorca: Palma Cathedral (La Seu), Sóller , Royal Palace of La Almudaina (Palau de l’Almudaina).
