Day one is a transfer from Palma airport to Sineu, where you stay four nights. Sineu is a proper inland town: a Gothic church, narrow streets, outdoor terraces, and a Wednesday market that draws people from across the island. You build the bike, or collect your rental, and get an early night.
The first three riding days all start and finish in Sineu. Day two is a 37–48 km loop through Petra and Ruberts with around 635 m of climbing. Day three is longer — 67 km out to Alaró and Santa María, 575 m up — and includes the ruined castle above Alaró with views across the plain. Day four heads south-east through Llucmajor and Montuiri, 51–61 km with 550 m of climbing, on the historic streets of Llucmajor and the lanes around Montuiri.
Day five is a point-to-point transfer day: 37 km from Sineu to Pollença, 430 m up and 510 m down. The last two nights are based in Pollença. Day six is a flat-ish loop out to the S'Albufera wetland reserve, 33–53 km with only 275 m of climbing — a good day to take easy. Day seven offers a choice: a short 15 km spin to Alcudia, or the harder run up to the Lluc monastery at 47 km with 325 m of climbing. Day eight is departure from Pollença.
The route is graded level 3, medium to challenging, on minor roads with some gravel sections. It suits riders who are comfortable navigating from a roadbook and fixing their own punctures, since there is no guide with you. The roadbook is in English and includes destination information, practical notes, detailed directions and maps.
Hotels are chosen for location and character rather than chain consistency, and all rooms have private bathrooms. Breakfast is included every morning. Bikes are not included in the base price — hybrid, electric and road bikes can be hired as extras, and there is an option to add a transfer from Pollença back to Palma airport at the end.
