Astonishing winding drive through the mountains and gorges to the sea, a wonderful old Cala and the legendary Torrens de Paraix gorge which runs through 3000m through the mountains. This is one wonderful trip!
The Drive
Drive to Soller and then follow signs for Pollensa and Lluc. You will wind up the mountains past Fornalutx to the two main reservoirs in mallorca and wonderful views of Puig Mejor (the highest mountain in Mallorca). There are many places you will want to stop to stretch and take in the views. Beyond the reservoirs, you see a turn to the left for Sa Calobra. You think that was dramatic? You ain’t seen nothing yet. What follows is something like 10km of extreme road engineering down to the coast.
