Best cycling routes in
Mallorca

Mallorca has a road network of 1,250 km, about half of which are local and secondary roads with an average width of 6.50 metres approximately, of which 20% are in the mountains. Some of the main roads have designated bike lanes painted in red or blue to the side of the road.

The Tourist Information offices often have information about cycling routes and there are several books on sale about cycling on the island, such as Cycle Tourism Routes Around the Island of Mallorca – publisher El Gall Editor SL.

In most of the coastal tourist resorts there are bicycle hire shops which rent out a variety of bikes including road, mountain, suspension, tandem, city, children’s bikes and tagalongs. They also have helmets and child seats for hire. Some will deliver bikes to the property you are staying in.  There are usually signs indicating cycling routes, especially through the country lanes and a speed limit for cars is also indicated. In certain areas there are also maps at the side of the road showing the cycling routes.
