Gravel bikes on Mallorca
Freedom away from the classics – rent a gravel bike
Freedom away from the classics – rent a gravel bike
The gravel bike combines the best of both worlds. It is faster and more efficient than a mountain bike and at the same time more robust and versatile than a classic road bike. This combination is ideal for the island.
Mallorca has a dense network of:
With a gravel bike, these routes can be combined effortlessly. This means less traffic, more nature and significantly more route variety.
While racing cyclists often focus on the well-known classics such as Sa Calobra or Cap Formentor, Gravel opens up completely new perspectives. Away from the main roads, quiet finca areas, pine forests, gravel roads along the coast and secluded paths in the interior of the island await.
Especially in spring and fall, Mallorca shows its quietest and most authentic side. The gravel bike allows you to experience this atmosphere more intensively.
Wider tires, more relaxed geometry and more control on mixed surfaces ensure a high level of riding comfort. At the same time, the riding experience remains sporty and dynamic.
Gravel is therefore the ideal addition for many cycling holidaymakers:
– A day in the Tramuntana on a road bike
– A day of off-road discovery on a gravel bike
This creates maximum variety in your training or vacation day.

Gravel is the perfect answer to “see more – less traffic”. Away from the well-known road bike hotspots, you will find many routes on Mallorca that are ideal for gravel: firm gravel passages, dusty tracks, short technical sections and long, flowing connections between villages and the coast. This allows you to plan tours in such a way that you combine sporty sections with peaceful moments in nature – without constantly being on the main roads.
What’s more, gravel bikes give you more freedom. You don’t have to decide between “asphalt only” and “off-road only”. You just ride off – and when you come to an exciting turn-off, you take it.
Our gravel fleet is there for you to concentrate on the essentials: riding. Examples from our gravel range include Cannondale Topstone Carbon 3 as well as variants with Shimano GRX – sporty, stable and ideal for mixed terrain.
If you want support (e.g. for longer days or to keep up with a stronger group), we also offer an E-Gravel ideal for those who want more range and reserves without losing the gravel character.
You can rent your gravel bike at 54eleven at three locations – practical if you want to start in the north or south, depending on your accommodation: Palma (Playa de Palma), Port d’Alcúdia and Port de Pollença.
You choose the location and period in the online booking, reserve your bike and are ready to go on site.
Gravel on Mallorca is ideal if you…
Gravel is also perfect for pairs or groups with different ability levels – especially in combination with E-Gravel if someone wants some support.
Mallorca is ideal for “loop” tours with varied terrain: you start near the coast, ride into the hinterland, take natural paths through quiet landscapes and return relaxed on asphalt sections. Especially in the north (around Pollença/Alcúdia), this can be combined very well, as you quickly move from the coast to hilly terrain.
If you like, the next step is to create 5 specific gravel routes as a landing page section (each with a short description, character, duration/level, highlights), matching your location focus (north or south).
