Overview

Welcome to the North of Mallorca! Nestled between two stunning bays, Pollença and the larger Alcúdia Bay (our home base), this corner of the island offers much more than postcard views. It’s a must-ride destination for any cyclist with a sense of adventure—and a taste for local flair. Sa Calobra: Prepare for a winding descent, the “Nudo de la Corbata” (literally, “the tie knot”) is a serpentine road that gracefully twists from mountain peaks to sea level. Pollensa is one of Mallorca’s most picturesque and storied towns. Grab a table at Plaça Major, order a cortado, and gaze at the 13th-century Església de Nostra Senyora dels Àngels, built by the Knights Templar. Port de Pollensa has been charming visitors long before cycling holidays were fashionable. The Pine Walk (Passeig Voramar) is a tranquil, tree-lined promenade perfect for a stroll. Cala Sant Vicenc: A quaint coastal village where nature really went all out. Think turquoise waters, rocky cliffs, and four distinct coves: Cala Barques, Cala Clara, Cala Molins, and Cala Carbó. Formentor: Known poetically as the “meeting point of the winds” , Cap de Formentor is where Mallorca’s rugged beauty peaks—literally. Excursion 1: During the high season (June 1 – October 30), access to Cap de Formentor is restricted for private vehicles from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. But worry not: TIB bus service to the rescue! Excursion 2: From Port d’Alcudia, take the bus to Alcudia or direct to Port de Pollensa/Pollensa. Get out at Cala Sant Vicenç—wander the coves, dip your toes in the sea.
