Treno De Soller

One of the highlights of Mallorca is the train to Soller, a small town near the coast north of Palma. The line cuts through rugged mountains and was built in 1912 to bring citrus fruit from Soller to the port. The fame of the train is such that there was a movie set on the train and more recently a musical. No longer carrying freight, the train, carriages and stations have been meticulously preserved and maintained and now the trip now attracts thousands of tourists.

Soller itself is a pretty town with an ancient church and lovely old square and if that is not enough old wooden trams link the town to the port about 10kms away which has a number of small pleasant beaches.
