View from the hotel room onto the beach and the port of Port Soller, with palm trees in the foreground

You can explore the island in a different way on the big tour around Mallorca, far away from the wild parties and crowded beaches. Dreamlike bays, unspoiled beaches and charming fishing villages without the tourist crowds: all this makes a holiday on two wheels across Spain’s most popular holiday island a special experience.

Those who love the sound of the sea, coupled with a fresh breeze and wonderful southern warmth are on the right track on Mallorca’s cycle paths! So much is clear: this cycle tour is a true all-rounder, because culture, exercise and enjoyment are all included. And happiness is guaranteed!

Your tour starts in Playa de Palma. Around 270 kilometres of cycling over eight days lie ahead of you. But there’s no need to worry, there is plenty of time for breaks and recovery. Whether you prefer a dip in the sparkling Mediterranean Sea, a nap on the beach or a stroll through picturesque towns – unspoiled Mallorca is at your feet.

But that’s not all! For what would a holiday on the Balearic Island be without indulging in some culinary delights? Your mouth will already be watering at the mere thought of the traditional Spanish kitchen. Paella, grilled vegetables and fine wines. Where? On the coast with a fantastic sunset and lovely little towns inland.

  • ‘Es Trenc’ – On the first stage you already reach Mallorca’s most beautiful white sandy beach. Fancy the sea? On the way to Colònia Sant Jordi, picturesque coves and sandy beaches with turquoise waters wait to be discovered.
  • The Drach Caves – The famous Drach Caves lie in the Mallorcan village of Porto Cristo. The special feature: deep inside the cave you’ll find the largest underground lake in Europe. A guided tour through this natural wonder is definitely an experience!
  • Fornalutx – You cycle through lemon and orange plantations to the ‘most beautiful village in Spain’. Delicious paella and a wonderful glass of wine await you in the cosy terrace bars.

On the eight-day cycle tour you cover between 50 and 65 kilometres per day. The tour is considered easy to moderate. After the achievable climbs, beautiful downhill runs usually follow, where you can have a breather.

What are you waiting for? Hop onto the bike saddle and off you go to discover the tour through unspoiled Mallorca.
