Summer, sun, sand – what more could you want? The starting point of this wonderful cycle tour is Playa de Palma on the picturesque Balearic island of Mallorca. Explore the Spanish island in a different way – on two wheels. Far away from the parties, clubs and crowded tourist hotspots, the Mallorca tour focuses on culture and enjoyment. What to expect? Charming fishing villages, pristine bays and coasts as well as wonderful beaches. And of course one or two cultural highlights can’t be forgotten!
Details of the Mallorca tour
Towards the sun on Mallorca’s cycle paths: accompanied by the sound of the sea, you cycle from one picturesque town to the next. The further you move away from the tourist locations, the more the unique flair of the island becomes clear. You will see: Mallorca shows another side!
The focus is on relaxation, enjoyment and culinary delights. Be it cooling off in the glittering Mediterranean Sea or a leisurely stroll through one of the historic city centres. In other words: just let your mind wander and enjoy the delicacies of Spanish cuisine. When you think of paella, fine wines and seafood, your mouth will water. Delicious!
The highlights of the Mallorca tour
‘Es Trenc’: From Palma you cycle along the coastal cycle path towards Colònia Sant Jordi. Shortly before you reach your daily goal, you will pass ‘Es Trenc’ – supposedly the most beautiful sandy beach in Mallorca. Fancy a break? Enjoy this wonderful area, relax on the almost white sandy beach and cool off in the deep blue Mediterranean. Just lovely!
Port de Sóller: The beautiful cycle path leads along almond groves from Alcudia to Fornalutx. After an enjoyable refreshment, we continue through lemon and orange plantations to Port de Sóller, an enchanting fishing village.
Interesting facts about the cycle tour ‘Mallorca with charm’
Over eight days you will cycle around 270 kilometres across the beautiful island of Mallorca. For ambitious cyclists there are between 50 and 60 kilometres a day on the programme. You can be happy: after the climbs there are wonderful descents to catch your breath. Ready? Let’s discover Mallorca!
On our ‘Cycle Tours with Charm’ you can enjoy the full service of our individual active holidays while staying in very special accommodation with that extra something in the best location. That means you can look forward to luxury furnishings and decor in the local style, as well as cuisine at the highest level. Many of our hotels with charm also offer large pools and a wellness area where you can relax after a lovely day of cycling.
From the Placa d’Espanya you cycle by the sea and follow the coastal cycle path to Playa de Palma. Continue along the coast to Capocorp Vell, the kingdom of the Cyclops (remains of traditional houses). Wind turbines line your way to the salt fields of Llevant where you see the pink-white shimmering salt lakes. Before you reach your accommodation, you’ll find the white sandy beach ‘Es Trenc’. It’s considered the most beautiful in Mallorca, so take a break or cool off in the deep blue sea.
Once again, you will love the coastal landscape in the picturesque bay of Cala Santanyi and the famous natural bridge ‘Es Pontas’. As you travel inland things become quieter. You’ll see low stone walls bordering fields. For centuries, the gnarled olive trees in the fields were protected by stately fincas.
Nowhere in the world is there so many windmills in one small area as on Mallorca. In the past they were an important part of agriculture on the island. Their function was either to grind grain or to pump water into the fields. On today’s stage, you will pass some very beautiful examples.
The route takes you along beautiful paths through olive groves via Sant Joan to Petra. Here a traditional Mallorcan ‘lunch snack’ is prepared for you in a restaurant on the lovely village square. Through one of the most enchanting landscapes of the island, the ‘Pla’, you will cycle to charming Santa Margalida and further on to the coast. It’s not far along the Playa del Muro until you reach your hotel in Alcudia. Enjoy the flair of the medieval city on a walk through the narrow streets.
Accompanied by almond trees you cycle along the World Heritage site of Tramuntana to the ‘leather city’ Inca. From here the transfer bus takes you to the monastery Lluc (visit possible) and further to 1200m above sea level. The departure by bike leads to one of the most beautiful villages in Spain, Fornalutx. There you can enjoy delicious paella in a cosy terrace restaurant. Continue through orange and lemon groves down to Port de Sóller, one of the island’s most charming fishing villages.
Breath-taking views of the sea are accompanying you on the last cycling day. You will cycle trough the picturesque towns of Deia and Valldemossa until you get to the West coast of the island leading you to the city of Palma. Explore the capital city with its lively boulevards, its narrow alleys and famous squares.

The exotic-looking hotel name is Hawaiian for sea turtle. Subtle luxury is reflected in exotic and Mediterranean details and offers maximum comfort. It is located right on the beautifully landscaped promenade in the centre of the former fishing village. The open plan restaurant offers excellent food and stunning views of the sea.

Finca son Roig Porreres
★★★★
This historical country house, which is located about 5km outside of Porreres, was first restored scrupulously and properly several years ago. A haven of peace and relaxation was created with an astonishing attention to detail. The excellent restaurant was housed in the former wine cellar and it is here that the Majorcan cuisine is being newly interpreted. The rooms provide a pleasant stay and are decorated in a classic style. After each day on the bike, you can spend time by the luxurious pool in the shade of the lemon trees.
This charming, small boutique hotel is located in the heart of the protected old town. The total of only 24 rooms are located in three interconnected historis buildings. The centuries old building fabric has been preserved with great attention to detail, yet guests do not have to do without any modern comforts. Thanks to its central location, all the city's sights are just a few steps away.
Hotel Es Port Port de Sóller
★★★★
The stately home dating back to the 17th century forms the centre of the hotel owned by the Montis family. Cosy corners in the historic walls allow you to immerse yourselves into times long gone by. However modernity has its rightful place here too ... in addition to comfortable rooms the large hotel pool, the indoor pool and the spa area provide extensive comfort zones.

Relaxing is easy under orange-, lemon- and olive trees in the large garden covering an area of over 40 000 m2. The restaurant puts extra special attention on Mallorquin cuisine.
Diese Radreise auf Mallorca war für uns ein unvergessliches Erlebnis. Die gut ausgeschilderten Routen führten durch abwechslungsreiche Landschaften und malerische Dörfer. Die ausgewählten Hotels boten ausgezeichnetes Essen und das Personal war freundlich. Das Eurobike-Team kümmerte sich um alles, sodass wir uns voll auf das Radfahren und die Schönheit der Insel konzentrieren konnten. Sehr empfehlenswert.

Traumhafte Tour durch Mallorca
Auf dieser Radreise zeigt sich Mallorca von einer ganz anderen Seite und wir finden von einer sehr viel schöneren. Wer die schöne Seite der Insel, ohne Massentourismus und Partygäste, kennen lernen möchte, sollte unbedingt diese Radreise von Eurobike buchen. Höhepunkt und schönster Stopp dieser Tour ist der Sandstrand "Es Trenc". Dort machten wir eine lange und entspannte Pause und kühlten uns im Meer ab. Unser Fazit: Traumhafte Radtour mit vielen tollen Höhepunkten!

Von Finca zu Finca (Radurlaub Mallorca)
Die beiden Fincas Monnaber Nou und San Roi sind beide sehr schön. Die Angestellten waren sehr aufmerksam und freundlich. Jeder Wunsch wurde erfüllt. Das Essen im Restaurant Monnaber Nou und die Aussicht von der Terrasse sind traumhaft! Die Fahrradrouten sind detailliert beschrieben, allerdings fehlen Hinweisschilder für Fahrradrouten auf der ganzen Insel, so dass eine Orientierung nicht immer leicht war. Alles in allem ein schöner erholsamer Urlaub. E Bikes sind empfehlenswert.

Liebe Frau Schüller! So sollen sich zufriedene Kunden anhören! Vielen Dank für dieses wunderbare Feedback! Es freut mich sehr zu hören, dass Sie auf Mallorca eine so tolle Zeit verbracht haben! Zusätzlich zu unserer Wegbeschreibung im Routenbuch und der Ausschilderung mit den Eurobike-Pfeilen bieten wir für unsere Gäste noch die GPS-Daten sowie die Eurobike App an. Damit sollte es dann einwandfrei mit der Orientierung klappen! Bitte fragen Sie bei Ihrer nächsten Reise einfach die GPS-Daten an. Wir werden Sie Ihnen gerne zukommen lassen! Ich hoffe doch es gibt eine nächste Reisebuchung?!?! Wir würden uns sehr darüber freuen!

Malle-Tour mal anders
Die Tour ist gut durchdacht und führt an vielen schönen Stellen Mallorcas vorbei. Sehr interessant auch die unterschiedlichen Unterkünfte. vom typischen Hotel am Strand von Palma bis hin zur Finca ist alles dabei. So haben wir einen umfassenden und abwechselungsreichen Eindruck von der Insel mitgenommen.
