Much of the cape is a restricted military zone, but you can take in the view from the terrace of the Mirador del Victòria, walk to the ruins of the Talaia d’Alcúdia or climb Penya Roja.

A popular walk leads to this remote, abandoned mountain castle north of Pollença (see also Castell del Rei).

A cave complex with a crystal-clear lake and the thinnest stalactite on record, 5 mm (1/5 in) thick. The tour lasts about 45 minutes and is less crowded than other cave tours.

Argentine visionary Adán Diehl’s contribution to high-end island tourism has had its ups and downs but is currently riding high again.

This viewpoint is the first stop on a tour of the Península de Formentor.

Located at the top of the road that leads down to Sa Calobra, this marvellous viewpoint overlooks the skein of road loops and, beyond all of the rocky outcroppings, the sea. Stop for refreshment at the restaurant here.

Jutting skyward like a stony crown, this majestic mountain is flanked on one side by the Sóller Valley, with its picturesque villages, and on the other by Lluc and the tranquil valley of Aubarca (seeNorth Coast).

Built in 1678, the church is as much fortress as spiritual centre due to pirate raids in that era. It houses a revered icon and a vibrant Baroque altarpiece.

Walk through a tunnel from Sa Calobra to reach the Torrent de Pareis, which begins in the mountains at the confluence of the torrents of Lluc and Gorg. This canyon is the second largest in the Mediterranean, and the point at which it exits into the sea is spectacular. However, hiking in the canyon can be dangerous, especially after rain.
