Very nice climb with a nice percentage (5-7%). Narrow winding road between the woods with little traffic. Nice climb to start with if you are going to do a round in the south-west of the island from Palma (which is highly recommended, beautiful surroundings).... read more

Steady climb over to Calvia. Plenty of shade. Very quiet road. Offers alternative route across to Santa Ponsa / Andratx areas instead of flatter route going along the coast through busier Magaluf / Palmanova etc.

Nice and steady climb, which really starts at the military barracks on the outskirts of Palma. Runs winding through beautiful area and there is hardly any car traffic. In June 2022, the Spanish National Championships were held on this track and it was still easy to see why the names of Mavi Garcia and Enrico Mas were chalked in various places on the road surface. Both are also from the island of Malloca itself and it was here that Mavi Garcia once again managed to become National Champion in the women's category. The descent of the Col de Sa Creu is quite technical and especially in the last part you can expect some car traffic in the opposite direction. Road surface is generally fine

Mooie lekker lopende beklimming, die pas echt begint bij militaire kazerne aan de rand van Palma. Loopt kronkelend door mooi gebied en is nauwelijks autoverkeer. Waren in juni 2022 nog de Nationale Kampioenschappen van Spanje op verreden en was nog goed te zien doordat de namen van "Mavi Garcia" en "Enrico Mas" op diverse plekken op het wegdek waren gekalkt. Beiden zijn ook afkomstig van het eiland Malloca zelf en gelukte het Mavi Garcia hier dan ook weer om Nationaal Kampioen bij de vrouwen te worden. De afdaling van de Col de Sa Creu is vrij technisch en vooral het laatste gedeelte nog wel wat autoverkeer in tegenovergestelde richting te verwachten. Wegdek is over het algemeen prima

Erg mooie klim met een lekker percentage (5-7%). Smalle kronkelende weg tussen de bossen met weinig verkeer. Mooie klim om mee te beginnen als je vanaf Palma een ronde gaat doen in het zuid-westen van het eiland (wat overigens zeer aan te raden is, prachtige omgeving).

Nice climb that goes on for a long time. A quiet road with little traffic. Ideal! Nice curves and once at the top a beautiful view.

Lekkere klim die lang doorloopt. Een rustige weg met weinig verkeer. Ideaal dus! Mooie bochten en eenmaal boven een prachtig uitzicht.
