What are the best landmarks and parks to explore by bike around Mallorca?

Cycling on the island has become even more rewarding with improved routes and a growing appreciation for Mallorca's natural and historic treasures. The road between Palma and Soller, including the Tren de Soller railway valley, offers an unforgettable ride, winding through orange groves and historic villages. Along the way, take time to visit the old harbour at Soller and soak up the Tramuntana mountain views.

The coastal path near Formentor is another striking route, combining sea views with pine-clad hills and quiet coves ideal for a rest. Inland, the Parc Natural de s’Albufera near Alcudia features flat trails through wetlands abundant with birdlife, perfect for a gentle break from hillier rides. Palma itself has expanded its cycling infrastructure, allowing rides past key landmarks like the gothic cathedral and the bustling Paseo Marítimo.

Further afield, smaller villages such as Valldemossa and Deià reward cyclists with charming streets and tranquil squares, where you can pause for a coffee and local specialties like pa amb oli or an ensaimada. Keep an eye out for striking sightlines along the Ma-10 through the Serra de Tramuntana, where ancient stone terraces frame the landscape and inspire a deep sense of place. Whether your pace is leisurely or brisk, Mallorca’s combination of coastal and mountain scenery, cultural spots, and green parks ensures a cycling tour rich with variety and discovery.
