Two climbs from Sóller

Coll de Sóller and Puig Major both start from Sóller, but they are different climbs. Compare their recorded distance and elevation gain before treating them as interchangeable options. The Puig Major entry describes the road ascent; the name alone does not mean the track reaches the mountain's summit. Open the profile to see the route's endpoint and how the gradient changes along the way.

Coastal approaches and inland passes

Sa Calobra starts at Port de Sa Calobra and climbs to Coll dels Reis. Cap Formentor starts at Platja Formentor, with uphill stretches separated by descents, so its average gradient can conceal the shape of the ride. Coll de Femenia from Pollença and Coll de sa Batalla from Caimari offer two distinct inland starting points. These profiles describe the selected climb, rather than an entire ride from your accommodation or a return journey.

Shorter climbs near Palma and Petra

Coll de sa Creu follows the winding ascent from the Palma side. Bonany starts in Petra and climbs to the hilltop hermitage in the island’s interior. These shorter profiles make useful additions to a ride in their own areas; they are separate destinations from Sa Calobra and the Sóller climbs.

Cura and Sant Salvador inland

Cura starts in Randa and Sant Salvador starts in Felanitx. Together with Bonany from Petra, they offer hilltop destinations away from the Tramuntana passes. They sit in different parts of the island; compare the full outing from your accommodation before combining climbs. Check current road information rather than assuming a recorded profile confirms access today.

Average gradient describes the recorded route as a whole. Open a climb to see its elevation profile and how the gradient changes along the road.
