Riding Es Verger — Sobremunt from Esporles
Out of Esporles by the costa de Son Tries and onto the carretera des Verger: 6.2 km of narrow mountain asphalt climbing past the Es Verger farms to the Sobremunt fork at 548 m — the road that joins the famous climb to the rest of the island, exactly where the published rides have always gone up.
This point-to-point line covers 6.2 km, from the documented ascent that finally reaches the island’s hardest climb.
The mountain character comes from more than gradient. Limestone, tunnel mouths, dry-stone edges, pine shade, reservoirs, and compressed hairpins change the view as much as the elevation.
Captured in muntro Relief, gradient, and how to pace it
This is serious vertical terrain. The road spans 368 m from bottom to top and accumulates 384 m of ascent, with sampled ramps reaching 12.6%. The profile makes the pacing decision visible before the first pedal stroke.
Start conservatively and keep something in reserve for the final third. On a smart trainer the real gradient changes arrive exactly where the road changes, so a smooth power ceiling matters more than chasing speed on every ramp.
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.

the documented ascent that finally reaches the island’s hardest climb
the documented ascent that finally reaches the island’s hardest climb is one of the route’s defining changes of scene and a useful marker for pacing the ride.

544 m high point
At 544 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 Es Verger — Sobremunt from Esporles 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.
