Now... Let the adventure begin!
Road route: Caimari - Escorca - Gorg Blau - Pollença - Campanet
Through an extensive route of 71,53 km, this route allows you to discover the magic of the Serra de Tramuntana.
You start in our favourite village, Caimari. Thanks to its ancient houses, its historical sites and its renowned ethnological park, this place leaves us with sublime landscapes in our minds. The route is circular, starting from Petit Caimari, which will also be the point of arrival in a few hours.

After cycling approximately 13 kilometres, you reach Escorca. Here the views become majestic. If you stop for a moment and look up at the sky, you can see the imposing Tramuntana mountains such as the Puig Major (1445 m).
The next stop is the Gorg Blau, an artificial water reservoir located between the slopes of Puig Major and Puig de Massanella. Undoubtedly, a gift of nature and the best place to rest and breathe fresh air. In addition, the Gorg Blau has a refuge where you can spend the night, a highly recommended option for the more adventurous: Espacios Naturales Protegidos-Gorg Blau.
To reach this beautiful reservoir, take a detour off the circular route. Then take the road back to Escorca and cycle 31km along the Ma-10 to reach Pollensa. Once in the town, take Carretera to Port de Pollença without entering the historic centre.
Along the way, you can find a number of bars and restaurants where you can take a break. Like the Restaurant Celler El Molí, where you can enjoy Mediterranean cuisine or simply have a drink and continue your journey.
Once you have recharged your batteries, return to the road along the Ma-2200 to reach Campanet, going around the village along carrer de la Serra, without entering the town centre. The surroundings of this place do not go unnoticed, the succession of valleys and mountains creates postcards.
On this occasion, we recommend that you visit the Campanet Heritage, Nature and Crafts - Campanet caves, and appreciate the geological phenomena in more than three thousand square metres of galleries and rooms.
It has been a long journey, but well worth it. To close the circuit, you return to the starting point, ride the last 6.4 km along the Camí de Selva and arrive back to Petit Caimari.
Mountain Bike Route: Lluc-Purgatori-Fornasets-s'Espinal-Coll Romani-Tancas d'Alt
Helmets, goggles and gears ready to start the other route. The adventure also starts in Petit Caimari, this time, by mountain bike!
The route is a circular route of 28.29 km, which starts on the old Lluc road to reach Sa Llengonissa, crossing es Purgatori and es Fornassets. This route is perfect for connecting with nature and the harmony of the place.
Following the path, you reach the Coll de sa Batalla section (576m above sea level), which deserves a special mention; it has very exciting hairpin bends and a descending area that allows you to rest your legs while you enjoy the wonderful views of the Tramutana.
At the end of this route, you will find a bar that bears the same name as the site, an ideal place to refresh yourself and recharge your batteries.
