Overview

Through the tour in Can Det you will see a clear example of the declaration of the Serra de Tramuntana as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The so-called Outstanding Universal Value coincides with the activity of Can Det both in the way of cultivating the ancient olive trees on the terraces of the mountains of the valley of Sóller and in the irrigation systems of its orange plantations. It is a sample of the human adaptation to the territory for centuries forming the current cultural landscape. Tasting the oil from olive trees more than 1000 years old is a unique experience.

Very authentic experience! The tour was very nice. We were able to see all the olives ready to be milled because we went in November. Afterwards we enjoyed a delicious tasting of olive oil, local wine and pastries. A must go!

Tomeu was a great host and tour guide. The tour shows the olive oil process. Tomeu has a nice way of explaining everything. Afterwards you will taste the various products home to Mallorca (delicious). All in all we recommend to visit Can Det if you visit Soller!

Can Det is unusual in still using a traditional press and making olive oil from ripe( black ) olives from small local producers. We had an interesting tour of the h...
