Are there any scenic viewpoints to visit while driving through the Serra de Tramuntana?

Locals often take their time along the serpentine stretches of the Ma-10 road through the Serra de Tramuntana, making spontaneous stops at the many viewpoints rather than rushing straight to a destination. One favorite spot is the Mirador Es Colomer near Formentor, where the dramatic cliffs drop sharply into the turquoise sea, offering sweeping views of the northern coastline. Watching the Mediterranean sunlight dance on the waters here is especially rewarding in late afternoon, with wild rosemary and thyme filling the air.

Further along, the viewpoint at the Lluc Monastery provides a serene contrast with its views of olive groves and pine forests nestled against towering peaks. On the Ma-10 route towards Soller, small pull-offs deliver lovely perspectives of the orange groves and terraced hillsides that define the landscape. After enjoying the panoramas, it’s not far to the town itself, where the historic tram and railway offer a charming way back down to Palma. Whether stopping for a photo or a breath of fresh mountain air, the viewpoints along these winding roads reveal the island’s rugged beauty from many memorable angles.
