Sóller Sights and Olive Oil

Submitted by carmine.nezi on

The magnificent Serra de Tramuntana mountains towering over Sóller are more than just photogenic – they create a microclimate ideal for growing produce. You may have already heard its moniker “Valley of the Oranges,” but Sóller is also responsible for delectable olive oil. Take in the views of this fertile valley as you travel from the coast on the Sóller Tramway. Arriving in the heart of the historic city, you will visit main attractions including Església de Sant Bartomeu, an ornate 17th-century church updated with a modernist flair, and Can Prunera, a modernist museum housed in an art nouveau mansion. Also within walking distance is an olive oil mill that has been family-owned since the 16th century. You will meet the owner and learn about Mallorcan olives and olive oil production as well as sample some of the region’s iconic foods, including the oranges.
