holiday homes for your cycling vacation in Mallorca for rent

Discover Mallorca by bike

The island had always been a popular destination for professional cyclists and their teams throughout Europe – they appreciate the different stages of difficulties and the selection of different bicycle tours. But also for every other demand and wishes, cycling on the island is recommended, may it be for cycling just for fun, mountain biking or racing cyclists.

Excellent cycling paths

Thousands of cyclists who arrive on the island in order to exercise their favourite sport in Majorca, have the choice between brilliant cycling paths and signposted ways of a length of more than 1.250 kilometres. From those, 20 % are streets paths of the mountains and nearly 700 kilometres are traffic less side streets. The Balearic government works on spreading this path network.

Hilly until steep streets, in the Tramuntana mountains even serpentines, are waiting for those of you who want to push their fitness. Lonely and flat land routes lead next to stony walls, carob and almond trees and on asphalted and unpaved streets, you can get from one village to another. Even Majorca’s beaches, bays and cliffs can be discovered by bike.

A cycling holiday on Majorca makes you fit, relaxes you totally and it is something for athletes and connoisseurs at the same time. It’s wonderful to inhale the fresh country air, the scent of the pines or the breeze of the sea and meanwhile go as fast as you feel like.

A perfect infrastructure for cyclists

The island adapted to the needs of the cyclists. Alone at Playa de Palma, around 30 cycling hotels can be found. These hotels also open during winter time, having an own cycling garage including a mechanic and special spa & wellness offering, which are customized for cyclists, i.e. massages relaxing the leg muscles. Even the kitchen of the hotel is customized to the needs of the cyclists with vitamin and carbohydrate food.

Cyclists can bring their own bike and transport it by plane. The bike has to be registered before and most of the airlines take it as a special luggage with extra costs amounting to approximately 50 € (besides E-Bikes). Guests can also just simply rent a bike right at the location, if it is not provided by the tour operator anyway.
