The Cami de Son Roig loop

Mallorca route guide · Pla de Mallorca

Riding The Cami de Son Roig loop

The Cami de Son Roig is under four kilometres of single-lane asphalt between the old Inca road and the camí vell de Muro, and the sweep had filed it as a dead end — it is the opposite, the missing side of a ring. Out of Binissalem on the Ma-13A carretera vella to the Son Roig turn-off, across the camí between the vines, and down the camí vell de Muro to the Biniagual gate. Flat, open Raiguer parcel the whole way — and the ring home over Biniagual and the Ma-3021 is yours to free-roam.

This point-to-point line covers 6.1 km, from Binissalem to Biniagual by the carretera vella and the Son Roig camí.

The route is read through settlement edges: narrow streets, rooflines, roundabouts, church towers, old road alignments, and the moment the built fabric releases the rider back into open country.

Relief, gradient, and how to pace it

The profile is restrained by Mallorca standards: 32 m separates its lowest and highest points. The interest comes from rhythm, surface changes, exposed straights, and the way the road moves through the landscape rather than one headline climb.

Use the opening kilometres to find cadence and keep the power smooth. The route is ideal for endurance work, recovery riding, or simply exploring the island without a large climbing bill.

Points to watch for

The best Mallorca routes are remembered as a sequence of places, not as a GPX line. These are the changes of scene that organise this ride.

1. 01

   Binissalem

   The route rolls away from Binissalem, giving you a few minutes to find cadence and read the road ahead.

2. 02

   Binissalem to Biniagual by the carretera vella and the Son Roig camí

   Binissalem to Biniagual by the carretera vella and the Son Roig camí is one of the route’s defining changes of scene and a useful marker for pacing the ride.

   128 m high point

   At 128 m high point, the elevation trace reaches its ceiling before the road releases the height it has earned.

Why this road works indoors

muntro does not flatten the Cami de Son Roig loop into a workout backdrop. The route’s bends, height, and junction order come from the road itself, while a compatible trainer reproduces the changing gradient under your pedals.

The point-to-point format gives the session a destination. There is no need to invent a finish when the real road already has one.
