About the road

Sa Calobra drops from the Coll dels Reis to a cove on Mallorca's north coast, so cyclists ride down to the sea and climb back up it: through the Tramuntana's hairpins and the Nus de sa Corbata, where the road loops under itself like the knot of a tie.

It is the climb of every winter training camp on the island. Ride it at home, the sea behind you all the way up.

Also known as Coll dels Reis, the Ma-2141, Nus de sa Corbata, the tie knot.

How to ride it on your trainer

1. Open longvoie in Chrome or Edge on a laptop or desktop. It is free: an email and a code to sign in, no password, no card.
2. Connect your trainer: any smart trainer that speaks FTMS (Wahoo, Tacx, Elite…), or a power meter, and a heart-rate strap if you have one. No trainer yet? Ride on the keys.
3. Pick Sa Calobra. longvoie sets your trainer's resistance as the road climbs and eases it as it falls, and you ride it in 3D, on the real street.
4. Stop whenever you like. Your next ride starts from the metre you stopped at.

At three or four rides a week, and a steady 25 km/h plus an hour for every 1,000 m up.

Take the road with you
