From Soller up in the mountains,Wednesday, 4th of April.

On the fourth day we took the tram to Soller and went from there up the mountains, Wednesday, 4th of April.



The Soller valley and its surrounding mountain range, the 'Serra de Tramuntana', a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a favourite destination for people from who enjoy walking, nature and a peaceful rest away from the hustle and bustle of the better-known tourist traps on Majorca.





Situated some 3 Km. inland from its port, 'Port de Sóller', the town lies in a large, fertile, bowl-shaped valley. Sóller shares its valley with the village of Fornalutx and the hamlet of Biniaraix, the combined population is around 13,000, and the valley is famous for its orange groves and terraces of ancient olive trees.
