Sa Gubia is a huge limestone gorge at the edge of the Serra de Tramuntana, just north of Palma off the Ma-11 Sóller road near Bunyola. It holds the island's best bolted multipitch, most of it in the 6a–6c range on walls up to about 200 m. The approach is a 40–45 min walk up a dry riverbed from the parking. Climb from autumn to spring, and don't leave valuables in the car.

Steep walls of beautifully sculpted grey and orange limestone immediately right of Princesa, even at 6b from bottom to top. Rockfax calls it more adventurous than its neighbour. Several belays are hanging, and the pitches can be split or linked in many ways.
