Overview

A demanding ascent from the stone village of Biniaraix through the dramatic Barranc de Biniaraix gorge to the summit of Cornador Gran (940m). The trail follows ancient cobblestone paths up through the gorge — one of the most impressive geological formations in the Tramuntana — before reaching alpine meadows and the exposed summit ridge. The views from the top encompass the entire Sóller valley, Puig Major, and the northern coastline.
