Mallorca's pleasant Mediterranean climate, as well as an extensive network of roads and secondary roads, make the island a formidable place for cycling enthusiasts. The sport can be practised all year round, with October to May being the most recommendable months. Mallorca's scenery allows you to enjoy beautiful routes with well-paved roads and an infrastructure developed to meet the needs of cyclists.
Cap de Formentor
This is one of the most famous routes in Mallorca for its spectacular views. It can be started from Puerto Pollensa and there is a distance of 20 km to reach the lighthouse of Cap de Formentor. Since access to private vehicles and motorbikes has been prohibited during the high season (July and August), this route is one of the safest for cyclists.
Sa Calobra
Sa Calobra is a small fishing village, belonging to the municipality of Escorca. Sa Calobra is located at the mouth of the Torrent de Pareis. This route is impressive for its beautiful views, its curves and the difficulty of its ascent for cyclists. It is 10 km long.
Cycling around Palma
From the Porto Pi shopping centre to the Arenal, passing through the areas of Portixol, El Molinar and Ciudad Jardín.
