Mallorca 312
2023 brings the 14th edition of the Mallorca 312 sportive. Ride along stunning roads and tackle some of the toughest climbs the island has to offer. When you book through Sportive Breaks, we take care of everything, from booking the hotel and organising warm-up rides to a bike rental service.
What is the Mallorca 312?
One of the biggest sportives on the calendar, 8,000 cyclists gather from around the world to ride the picturesque closed roads. There are three routes to choose from, ranging from 167km to 312km.
The shortest route offers steady climbs, perfect for all abilities with plenty of opportunities to make new friends on the road. The medium course includes looping the coast, breathing in the fresh sea air. Last but certainly not least, the longer route is an endurance challenge and includes tackling two famous Mallorcan climbs.
