Which cycling routes in Mallorca provide the best scenic views for riders?

Planning your ride around the timing of sunrise or sunset can turn a good cycling route into an unforgettable experience. The coastal road MA-2210 from Port de Soller to Cala Deià, for example, rewards cyclists with sweeping views across the Tramuntana mountains and the Mediterranean Sea. As you pedal through fragrant pine forests and along terraced hillsides, the charming villages of Soller and Deià provide perfect stops to rest and enjoy local specialties like pa amb oli or a glass of Binissalem wine.

For those seeking a challenging yet scenic outing, the route around Cap de Formentor on the northern tip of the island offers dramatic cliffs and panoramic vistas over turquoise coves. Windy stretches of the MA-2220 road reward riders with glimpses of hidden beaches such as Cala Figuera and powerful Mediterranean waves below. The combination of sea breeze and mountainous terrain creates a sense of exhilaration few places can match.

The Ma-10 road itself is a classic among cyclists thanks to its mixture of undulating hills, olive groves, and local villages like Valldemossa and Pollenca. Traveling this way allows you to soak in the serenity of the Serra de Tramuntana while passing stone farmhouses, almond orchards, and roadside markets. In winter and spring, the surrounding countryside bursts with wildflowers and mandarin groves, adding bursts of color to your journey.

Alternatively, for gentler rides, the TIB bus network includes routes that accommodate bikes, enabling access to quieter trails inland near Alcudia or around the Mondrago Natural Park. These options are popular with families and leisure cyclists who prefer to combine scenic views with wildlife spotting or a swim in Cala Llombards after their ride. Whichever route you choose, Mallorca’s varied landscapes guarantee stunning views and a memorable cycling experience.
