Mallorca route guide · Pla de Mallorca
Riding The Sant Jordi chord
The quiet cut the Challenge peloton knows: from the marsh junction below Puntiró up the camí de Sant Jordi, through the village roundabout onto the carretera de Pòrtol, ending where the old Santa Maria road borrows the Ma-3010 to cross the autopista.
This point-to-point line covers 5.7 km, from the Ma-3010 that halves the marsh detour.
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 133 m from low point to high point. There is 38 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
Puntiró — the Ma-3011 marsh junction
The route rolls away from Puntiró — the Ma-3011 marsh junction, giving you a few minutes to find cadence and read the road ahead.
- 02
the Ma-3010 that halves the marsh detour
the Ma-3010 that halves the marsh detour is one of the route’s defining changes of scene and a useful marker for pacing the ride.
- 03
161 m high point
At 161 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 Sant Jordi chord 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.
