Itinerary description

Coastal trail

Far des Cap Gros lighthouse was built between 1842 and 1850 at the initiative of Sóller Town Council and was later incorporated into the state lighthouse network. It underwent alterations in 1870, in accordance with plans designed by the engineer Llorenç Abrines. The tower is twenty metres high and its light has a range of eighteen nautical miles. It was originally built in order to guarantee the safety of the ships that at the time would call in at Port de Sóller, the port of exit for many goods that were exported for the French markets, oranges from the Sóller valley in particular.
