Coll de Sa Bataia, ESP

The Coll de Sa Bataia is one of the most rewarding climbs on Mallorca. Starting in Caimari, it winds 8.1 km through the Serra de Tramuntana up to Lluc. The entire mountain range has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2011, drawing cyclists from across the globe.

Furthermore, the Coll de Sa Bataia has a strong place in cycling culture on the island. Professional teams flock to Mallorca every spring because the roads and climate are simply ideal for training. Many riders tackle this Category 2 climb as part of longer loops through the Tramuntana.

Above all, the finish at the Lluc Monastery sets this climb apart from others on the island. The monastery dates back to the 13th century and remains the most important religious site in Mallorca. The Coll de Sa Bataia therefore offers something rare: a climb where the destination is just as compelling as the road itself.
