New altimeters, but with hiking boots on.
You probably know Mallorca mainly for its asphalt, climbs, descents, and exceptionally beautiful rides. But who says adventure ends when you get off your bike? Mallorca is bursting with spectacular hiking trails that are rugged, quiet, and surprisingly challenging. Ideal for an active day of rest or as an extra experience alongside your cycling vacation.
Why hike when you can cycle?
- A different perspective: You see the island in a completely different way.
- Active recovery: Walking keeps you moving without the strain of cycling.
- New routes, new terrain: Places you would never reach on a road bike.
- Adventure guaranteed: Technical terrain, rocky paths, hidden bays.
Our favorite hikes for adventurers
1. Tossals Verds: Serra de Tramuntana at its purest
A challenging mountain hike along rugged rock formations, abandoned mountain huts, and views you won’t soon forget. Swap your cycling shoes for sturdy hiking boots and experience Mallorca at its raw and pure best.
3-4 hours | +700 m elevation gain | technical, but well marked
2. The Cúber Trail to Coll de l’Ofre
Start at the famous Cúber reservoir and climb through pine forests to one of the most beautiful viewpoints on the island. Perfect if you want a day without cycling, but not without some elevation gain.
Finish with a view of Sóller and the sea.
3. The path to Cala Tuent
Not the easiest, but one of the most beautiful. A varied route that ends at a secluded beach. Think hairpin bends, silence, and a dip in the blue sea as a reward.
On the way back, a tough climb awaits, so you’ll need strong legs!

Combine with yoga
