Longest climb on Mallorca, very worthwhile. Wide road and excellent tarmac. Fairly busy in terms of traffic, but nowhere dangerous due to the wide roads and good behaviour of most drivers. Light in the tunnels is handy, but there are plenty who do without.

Wide road, a lot of cars but never dangerous. Beautiful views over Port de Sóller. Ends at the tunnnel and then you can go further to two lakes (Embassament de Cúber and Gorg Blau), Coll dels Reis, and of course descend to Sa Calobra. Don't forget to visit Port de Sóller as well where you can rehydrate and rent bikes.

The longest climb with the most height meters on Mallorca. I rode a slightly different variant myself, from the centre of Soller first towards Fornalutx, then the same way. I found it a great climb, good tarmac (as in fact almost everywhere on Mallorca), nice views and no steepness at all.

Beautiful climb, beautiful views with a pleasant percentage where you can still get enough speed. Highly recommended!

Lovely long climb. It starts with a nice climbing percentage, then it's a bit easier for five kilometers and this leaves you with something left for the last four kilometers which are again against 7％. Beautiful rocky and wooded area. It is a busy road, with many motorcycles at the end of the afternoon. At the top is a tunnel of about 300 meters, it is quite dark so make sure you have light on your bike.
