Into the Orient

In the early light of dawn or the soft hues of sunrise, this ride offers a serene escape from the rigours of the bustling, iconic routes that Mallorca has to offer. This carefully curated route has been designed not only for recovery, but also to immerse you in the island's incomparable beauty and showcase the essence of cycling.

Starting from the heart of Alaro, you'll soon find yourself on an enticing climb flanked by orchards and the smell of pine trees. The village of Orient after the first descent is the perfect place to stop and rest or simply bask in the warm sun on the terrace of a restaurant. You can take comfort in the fact that once you leave the village, the most challenging part of the ride is behind you. Ahead lies a mostly downhill route back to Alaro, a gentle reward for your efforts.
