Our main climb of the day takes us from Port de Pollença to the Colomer Mirador, where we’ll steal some magnificent glimpses of craggy rocks and the shimmering blue sea. Arrive at the lighthouse, enjoy a refreshing drink, and take a moment to snap some photos from the lighthouse terrace. Ride all the way back to Port de Pollença, or transfer and arrive in time for lunch at Tolo’s, a favorite hangout for amateur and professional cyclists alike—Sir Bradley Wiggins has been spotted here. After lunch, return to the hotel by van or via the coastal road to Alcudia. Tonight, our friend Kata opens the door to her family-owned winery.

Climb the Col de Puig Major, the highest point of the week where we’ll pause to absorb the views of the valley below before an exhilarating 14-kilometer descent into Sóller.

Today we dial down the intensity to conserve our energy for tonight’s sol y sombra soirée. Ride out from the hotel on a coastal road, then descend right into Sóller. From here, choose an easier loop through the small village of Fornalutx past citrus and olive orchards, or tackle the challenging switchbacks of the Col de Sóller, adding a 6% grade over five kilometers. We’ll regroup in the charming seaside village of Port de Sóller for a delicious lunch overlooking the marina before zipping along the coast towards the Deià cove, close to our hotel. Tonight is the show we’ve all been waiting for as a total solar eclipse takes place over northern Spain for the first time since 1905. At the best viewpoint in the region, your guides have prepared a celestial celebration where the sundowners flow freely. We’ll make our way back into Deià for the (second) sunset of the evening, where you’re free to dine at a restaurant of your choosing.

A celebratory lunch is served in the chic marina town of Port Andratx. After lunch, opt to continue your ride all the way to our final hotel of the week, or transfer by van.
