Riding Carrer de sa Rectoria
Nineteen hundred metres out of Esporles that close an eighty-four kilometre detour. The road was refused once as mere village access; measured as connectivity it is the missing side of the whole northwest triangle, and it climbs gently out of the town to the Grau road with the valley opening behind.
This point-to-point line covers 1.9 km, from Esporles toward the Ma-1101 — the closure the refusal finally allowed.
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
The profile is restrained by Mallorca standards: 82 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.
Ride the early gradients a shade below the effort you think you can hold. The broken rhythm rewards cadence changes and short, controlled pressure rather than repeated spikes above threshold.
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.
- 01
Esporles
The route rolls away from Esporles, giving you a few minutes to find cadence and read the road ahead.

the Ma-1101 — the closure the refusal finally allowed
the Ma-1101 — the closure the refusal finally allowed is one of the route’s defining changes of scene and a useful marker for pacing the ride.

268 m high point
At 268 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 Carrer de sa Rectoria 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.
