Torrent des Gorg des Diners
This torrent, with the biggest unevenness of the canyons in Majorca, starts up at the northern face of Puig Major. These 700 m unevenness will be faced by the northern part of the island towards Cala Tuent. The Gorg dels Diners is one of the longest sporting course of Majorca. On the other hand this torrent has a unique characteristic; the water does not remain in the pools and unless we descend in a rainy day, the torrent will be dry.
Remarks: Dry all over the year except for rainy days. We find water in only one pool.
