CALA JONDAL

<div> This route is designed for lovers of countryside and mountain. It is a tour</div> <div> that requires us to have a good level of cycling proficiency and proven</div> <div> physical fitness. That said, we enjoy a journey that shows us the interior</div> <div> of the island's far southwest, introducing us to traditional crops,</div> <div> impressive views and winding lanes while we pass through woods and</div> <div> fields which, especially in spring, overflow with colour and Mediterranean</div> <div> essence.</div> <div> We begin by pedalling along asphalt but immediately exit from the paved</div> <div> route and immerse ourselves in a network of paths, tracks and trails that</div> <div> we do not leave until we have almost finished.</div> <div> During the almost 40-kilometres route we experience an approximate</div> <div> 900 metres' difference in altitude which we tackle at two accessible</div> <div> climbs, first, Capelleta, and second, Sa Talaia, although we do not arrive</div> <div> at their summits.</div> <div> Halfway through the journey -if the weather is right- it is almost</div> <div> impossible not to make the most of the brilliant waters of Cala Jondal or</div> <div> Porroig and take a refreshing dip. Afterwards, we climb halfway up the</div> <div> mountain of Sa Talaia, crossing impressive valleys full of local flora and</div> <div> fauna, and return to Sant Antoni through small, pretty fields of crops in</div> <div> more relaxing terrain.</div>
