Overview
This year's edition has been designed to offer more than just incredible riding. Inspired by the way we experience Mallorca ourselves, we've created a long weekend that combines iconic roads, hidden gems and the island's unique lifestyle. From Thursday to Sunday, you'll ride some of our favourite routes, sharing the road with the local cycling community while discovering the cafés, villages and places that make Mallorca one of the world's greatest cycling destinations. Afternoons are yours to explore, relax by the sea or enjoy the island at your own pace. Whether it's your first time in Mallorca or your tenth, Escape Mallorca is an invitation to experience the island through local eyes.
