In this video, we go over our top 5 climbs in oder from Mallorca. This is the order that we enjoyed them the most. we would also like to know which climbs are your favourites.
IMO the best climb on the island is Coll de Sóller because of the highway tunnel its almost entirely car free. I'd include Sa Batalla, de sa Creu, and a Port de Valldemossa/Canonge combo (terrifying cliff side hairpins!). An area people often overlook is the SW of Tramuntana, the road from es Capdellà through Galilea and Esporles to Valldemossa is just superb.
What time of year did you do familia? In summer it’s definitely not quite and pretty dodgy when you meet a car squeezing round a corner, but that’s the same for all these routes
My favourite is the climb from Es Capdella to Galilea, with a stop at Cafe Sa Placa de Galilea, ask for a table on the terrace. You can thank me later. 😊
Some hidden gems are Port Valldemossa, Coll de Sa Crue(if you stay in Palma this is a must, I have a video on my channel about this climb.), also there are many nice climbs around Arta that are much less well known.

Cap d‘ Formentor should be in TOP 5
BATMAN
You must try The Lighthouse ride🤩
I’m missing Col de sa Batalla and Sant Salvador. Top 5 on my list at least.

Randa from the south is really tough in short sections. Recommended.
I miss Sant Salvador and Sa Batalla. I think Mallorca needs a top 10 👍😅

Artà to Betlem Monastery is another beauty 👌
