Go across the Sierra de Tramuntana from one end to another. This is a challenge that will allow us to enjoy spectacular views of the mountain range which was recently declared part of the world heritage.
The Travessa is a route for medium/high level cyclists, where cycling becomes a pleasure as your effort is always compensated by an unbeatable climate, spectacular light and views surrounded by the Mediterranean.
In order for you to enjoy the incredible surroundings and the 150 kms of routes, as well as the accumulated climb of 4.400 m, we would advise you to divide the route into three stages, and an adjoining route, which goes through the north face of the Sierra, beginning at Pto Andraitx, situated on the west of the island, taking the north west direction, which is the natural route of the Sierra, then finishing in Port Pollensa.
Mixing high mountainous areas with incredible coves, of cristal clear water, all of this between zero and 900 m at the highest point of the route. The ground is a constant up and down hill with a variety of routes for all tastes.
FIRST STAGE.
Running through virgin ground of the Poniente Mallorquin, beween beaches and cliffs with an average height of 450m above sea level, finishing at Banyalbufar, a small charming village on the coast. In Hotel Mar i Vent (1931), situated on front line, you will build up strength for the next stage.
SECOND STAGE.
We cross the central part of the Sierra, arriving on many occasions at sea level, and all the time admiring
lovely coves, small villages and Manor houses in the depth of the Sierra.
Finally arriving at Soller, this is the emblematic capital of the Tramuntana, where you will find a quaint
fishing port and a well deserved rest in the hotel on the beach.
THIRD STAGE.
Arriving at the highest point on the route, where the ground is surprising for an island. This is the unspoilt Mallorca, visiting the Lluc Monastery , a pilgrims sight. Finishing with a long, exciting descent which ends in Pollensa, an old Roman village and finishing at the beach, next to the port.
