Activity Level: Level 3
Terrain: Hilly
On our Mallorca Self-Guided bike tour, the terrain is consistently hilly, with narrow, winding roads. Some ascents can be steep and extend up to three miles (5 km) and descents feature sharp switchbacks that require confident bike handling. Roads are mostly quiet and drivers are generally respectful of cyclists, though you should feel comfortable riding in traffic.
Mallorca is best suited for our Level 3 riders. Level 4 riders will enjoy the extra mileage the avid route options offer.
