The Cala Sant Vicenç Road

Mallorca route guide · North Mallorca

Riding The Cala Sant Vicenç Road

The turn every guide measures — "at 3.8 km turn right" — and then the Ma-2203’s whole repertoire in under four: one real corner climbing out of the Pollença plain, the little col above the Torrent dels Jueus, an 8.6 m deck, and the descent toward a serrated skyline of 300-metre cliffs — the Cavall Bernat — that closes the view the entire way down. The road arrives as a one-way avenue under Aleppo pines, past a hand-painted 1989 ceramic map of the four coves, and ends at a cove with a café that two independent cycling sources call a pitstop.

This point-to-point line covers 5.5 km, from Pollença toward the 3.8 km turn toward Cala Sant Vicenç.

This is coastal Mallorca rather than a generic blue horizon: the road’s relationship with coves, cliffs, ports, stone retaining walls, and open water is what defines it.

Relief, gradient, and how to pace it

The profile is restrained by Mallorca standards: 28 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

   Pollença

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

2. 02

   the 3.8 km turn

   the 3.8 km turn is one of the route’s defining changes of scene and a useful marker for pacing the ride.

3. 03

   Cala Sant Vicenç

   Cala Sant Vicenç is one of the route’s defining changes of scene and a useful marker for pacing the ride.

4. 04

   46 m high point

   At 46 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 Cala Sant Vicenç Road 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.
