Cycling day trip from Port d'Alcudia to Soller

This ride from Port d’Alcudia to Sóller really lets you soak in the best of northern Mallorca. Kicking off at Port d’Alcudia — a laid-back resort town with sandy beaches and plenty of cafés — you’ll start mellow, but don’t get too comfy. The route covers about 83 km and some serious leg-burners: expect over 1400 meters of climbing as you wind through fragrant pine forests and dramatic Tramuntana foothills.

The ride mixes quiet backroads (you’ll love the peaceful stretches), a handful of rustic lanes, and some classic Mallorcan asphalt, so the scenery keeps changing. Climbing is pretty steady but not punishing, and the high point tops out just above 500 meters — keep your camera handy for those panoramic Mediterranean views.

Reaching Sóller is your reward: this charming town is famous for its orange groves, handsome architecture, and that classic old tram trundling down to the harbor. Grab a coffee in the main square and soak up the mountain vibe before thinking about your return!
