We suggest you visit these five corners at the rhythm set by the island while paying attention to the path that leads to them. A good soundtrack in the car and voila!

1. ENTRY INTO TRAMUNTANA THROUGH THE VALLDEMOSA ROAD

The town of Valldemosa stands out for its architecture, its culture and its unique location in the mountains. It is no coincidence that Chopin chose this place on the island to live. Arriving from Palma, it is the first point of the Sierra de la Tramuntana and that entrance to the sierra is, without a doubt, a spectacle to enjoy. from the capital you must take the Ma-1110 road to reach this charming town.

two. ARRIVAL IN SÓLLER BY TRAIN

If there is an indispensable town on the island, we could say that it is soller : history has made it an inspiring and unique place in Mallorca. In winter it provides enough oranges for the morning juice of the whole island and in summer the artisanal ice cream for hot afternoons. Thank you Soller! There are many ways to get there but we suggest you leave your car and you get on the wooden train of 1912 . This leaves from the capital, making different stops along the way: the main ones are Bunyola, town of Sóller and port of Sóller.

3. DESCENT TO THE SA CALOBRA COVE

There's no doubt Sa Calobra It is one of the key coves of the coast of the Tramuntana , but anyone who visits it will realize that the journey to reach it is absolutely magical. Prepare to slide down the road through stunning natural scenery. The road we are talking about is the Ma-2141.

Four. SAILING TO CABRERA

What if you set aside a day to visit another island? From the Colony of Sant Jordi you can take a boat that will take you to the Cabrera Archipelago Maritime-Terrestrial National Park , not everything is going to be road! Is a virgin island half an hour by boat from Mallorca that will make you see everything with another perspective. There is also a hostel where you can book in advance and feel like a real pirate in the middle of the sea.

5. CLIMB TO THE CAPE FORMENTOR LIGHTHOUSE

To the north of the island, when the Sierra de la Tramuntana ends, a treasure awaits you: the Cape of Formentor , the end (or the beginning) of the saw. Its lighthouse reminds sailors who go to or come from Menorca that the north of the big island is right here . The winding road that leads to it is the Ma-2210.
