The heart of the Tramuntana: Sóller, Puig Major, Sa Calobra and Lluc

Serce Tramuntany: Sóller, Puig Major, Sa Calobra i Lluc

The island's most winding road: from Sóller up to the foot of the highest peak, then down the hairpin bends to Sa Calobra and the mouth of the Torrent de Pareis, and finally the Lluc sanctuary. Lots of driving, so set off at dawn; out of season there are fewer coaches.
