I first went up the Toro in about 1983 and it's a must every time we visit Menorca. The view is wonderful, and we like the fact that it's a genuine church and still very much used. Coffee, restaurant and views are all terrific but be careful driving up and down - it takes some doing!

You will not regret making the journey up to Monte Torro, the views from the top are amazing and on a clear day you can see Mallorca. Go into the cafe for coffee and sit on the terrace, you will not be disapointed. The road up the mountain is easy to drive, it is 2 lanes now so just go... More

A curvy drive uphill from Es Mercadal will put at the top of Mt. Toro. There is plenty of parking and the views are fantastic! There is a small church at the top that you can visit along with a gift shop and restaurant. There is no charge to access the mountain or church. Try to go on a sunny,... More

For me one of the musts of Menorca. Go on a clear day if you can to get a view over the whole island. the church is a delight...even if you normally don't like churches this one has a nice energy. there's a cafe and restaurant up there as well. If you don't have a car to drive up, then... More

Highest point on the island. The old monastry, that now only has 3 nuns there, is not huge but well worth a visit. The building is very old and sits on an old cave where something special was found years ago. Visit and you will find out. Entry was free but they rely on donations and shop sales to keep... More

Having hired a car we decided to drive to Monte Toro. We had heard the views were spectacular and were not disappointed. You can drive all the way to the summit and there are a couple of car parks at the top. If you go on a clear day you can see the whole of Menorca. There is a small... More

A winding road approach - fabulous views over all the island - lovely church/monastry - gift shop at reasonable prices. A must visit place - the only mountain on the island

The mountain monastery in Menorca is a must vist for the fantastic panoramic views over the island. It is a beautiful building and a lot of the complex including the main church is open to the public. The shop here has a wide range of goods and there is also a small shop for religious items. The cafe whilst a... More

If you visit Monte Toro, make sure you take a camera! Also, there is a little monastery, which you can visit and it is well worth doing so.
