Overview

A gentle circular walk connecting two of Mallorca's most beautiful villages through the heart of the Sóller valley's famous orange groves. Starting from Fornalutx — often called Spain's prettiest village — the trail winds through terraced citrus orchards, past ancient stone farmhouses, and along irrigation channels that have watered these groves since Moorish times. The scent of orange blossom in spring is intoxicating.

Guide's Advice

"Time your visit for late March to early April when the orange blossoms are at their peak. Stop at Ca'n Xoroi in Fornalutx for freshly squeezed Sóller orange juice."
