Day 1: Arrival in Mallorca
Travel to the island of Mallorca and arrive in Sineu. a mediaeval town with its impressive Gothic church, narrow lanes and lively outdoor terraces where you’ll stay for four nights. Rest, relax and get ready for a splendid week of cycling.
Day 2: Loop from Sineu via Petra & Ruberts (37 - 48 km / 23 - 30 mi)
From the historic Sineu, start off cycling to Petra and pause at the monastery and museum dedicated to Padre Serra, the European ‘founder’ of California. The hilltop chapel of Bonnay makes a prime spot for lunch. The next section of the route takes you along quiet country roads and dirt tracks to Ruberts before returning to your hotels through beautiful vineyards and olive groves
Challenge: 37 - 48 km / 23 - 30 mi, 635 m ascent and descent
Day 3: Loop via Alaró and Santa María (67 km / 42 mi)
Cross the Palma-Inca highway and traverse almond and olive orchards on the slopes of the Serra de Tramuntana. Stop in Alaró to see the lovely castle then skip 3 km in traffic by taking ancient footpaths to Binissalem, with one short non-cyclable section. Circling back, you ‘sail down’ a lovely inland road and wind through authentic farmland past impressive estates and ancient villages.
Challenge: 67 km / 42 mi, 575 m ascent and descent
Day 4: Loop via Llucmajor and Montuiri (51 / 61 km / 32 - 38 mi)
Classic Mallorquin windmills mark the way today as you turn south. Choice of visiting three different chapels on the 450 m ascent up Puig de Randa or taking a gentler route directly to Llucmajor to skirt the Puig. Toward the end, a dirt track leads to Montuiri then you cycle back to your hotel.
Challenge: 51- 61 km / 32 - 38 mi, 550 m ascent and descent
Day 5: Ride from Sineu to Pollença (37 km / 23 mi)
Bid farewell to your kind hosts in Sineu and ride north to Llubí on a fairly relaxed tour. From Campanet, you pedal into a quiet valley of carob and almonds groves. Approaching Pollença you endure 2 km / 1,2 mi on a busy main road and are rewarded on arrival at your comfortable charming accommodation.
Challenge: 37 km / 23 mi, 430 m ascent, 510 m descent
Day 6: Loop from Pollença via S’Albufera (33 - 53 km / 20,5 - 33 mi)
Trek to the tourist mecca of Sa Pobla with an optional detour via Muro and Santa Margalida. Marvel at typical Mallorcan landscapes with windmills and fields of artichokes. Then get lost in a tiny yet beautiful corner of the world, the peaceful marshlands at S’Albufera ideal for spotting an array of water birds.
Challenge: 533 - 53 km / 20,5 - 33 mi, 275 / 175 m ascent and descent
Day 7: Loop via Alcudia or Lluc Monastery (15.5 - 47 km / 9,5 - 29 mi)

STANDARD HOTELS
The hotels on this trip have been carefully selected for their location, atmosphere and/or unique services. All rooms are en-suite. Some of the hotels we work with appear here. If a certain hotel is unable to confirm due to lack of availability, we will request a similar one and inform you about the alternative booked.
At Hotel Can Joan Capó, only deluxe rooms with terrace are available with two single rooms, so the price when booking in twin rooms is higher.
Extra nights can be booked at any of the accommodations along the way.
Hotel Can Joan Capó (Sineu)
Can Joan Capó is the perfect place for travellers who appreciate peace and quiet, good food, this special something and a personalized service. A four star hotel in a traditional Majorcan home that has been lovingly converted with great attention to detail and transformed into an adults only boutique hotel with eleven guest rooms. Feel at home.
Hotel Son Sant Jordi (Pollença)
A charming rural hotel situated in Pollensa town centre. The complex is made up of a group of 18th-century houses which have been restored and adapted for maximum relaxation and comfort.
