Mallorca is a paradise for cycling enthusiasts. Its diverse landscapes and pleasant climate make it an ideal destination for cycling. At Garden Hotels, we would like to invite you to discover two exceptional routes that will not only show you the natural beauty of the island, but will also offer you an unforgettable experience on two wheels: the Camí de s’Arxiduc and the S’Albufera Natural Park.
Camí de s’Arxiduc Route: a journey through history and nature
The Camí de s’Arxiduc is one of the most spectacular mountain routes in Mallorca. Located in the Serra de Tramuntana, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it combines history and nature in a unique way.
- Start in Valldemossa: The route begins in the picturesque village of Valldemossa, known for its cobbled streets and rich history. Here, you can enjoy breakfast in one of the cafés before starting your adventure.
- Ascent to Camí de s’Arxiduc: As you ascend, you will be rewarded with panoramic views of the Mediterranean and the cliffs of the Serra de Tramuntana. The road, built by Archduke Ludwig Salvator in the 19th century, takes you through rugged landscapes and lush forests.
- Breathtaking views: At the highest point, you can enjoy incredible views stretching from the coast to the mountains. It is a perfect place to take a break and appreciate the serenity of the surroundings.
Route through the S’Albufera Natural Park: an oasis of biodiversity
The second route we propose takes you to the S’Albufera Natural Park, a sanctuary for the local fauna and flora. This tour is ideal for those looking for a more relaxed experience and direct contact with nature.
- Start in Alcúdia: Start your tour in the historic village of Alcúdia, from where you can cycle to the park.
- Through the nature reserve: The route will take you along quiet, well-marked trails through the reserve. Here, you can observe a wide variety of birds and other animals in their natural habitat.
- Observation points: There are several lookout points along the way where you can stop and view the surroundings. It is an ideal place for photography and nature lovers.
