Mallorca route guide · Llevant & East Coast
Riding Manacor to Artà
The east half of the island’s spine road: out of Manacor at the NE junction, along the Sant Llorenç bypass, over the 209 m coll to the carretera de Xiclati, and down past the torrent bridge into Artà’s western gate.
This point-to-point line covers 17.5 km, from the Ma-15 over the coll — the road of the Llevant.
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.
Captured in muntro Relief, gradient, and how to pace it
The elevation trace is rolling rather than alpine, spanning 143 m from low point to high point. There is 211 m of total ascent, enough to reward measured pressure over the rises without turning the whole route into a survival exercise.
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.
- 01
Manacor
The route rolls away from Manacor, giving you a few minutes to find cadence and read the road ahead.
- 02
the Ma-15 over the coll — the road of the Llevant
the Ma-15 over the coll — the road of the Llevant is one of the route’s defining changes of scene and a useful marker for pacing the ride.

207 m high point
At 207 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 Manacor to Artà 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.
