About this ride

This is a flat, traffic-free day in Mallorca on a former railway path that runs towards the coast. The route covers about 40 km with only around 180 m of climbing, so the gradients are gentle throughout and the effort stays low. You ride at whatever pace suits you, with no group target to keep up with and no traffic to watch.

The bikes are touring bikes, and the day is built for comfort rather than performance. Families, returning riders and anyone who wants a long day outdoors without hills will find it easy to manage.

Within the Ride Mallorca line-up it is the flattest option. The forest gravel loop and the riverside gravel intro involve loose surfaces, and the big climb morning is aimed at strong legs. The greenway has none of that: a steady surface, a steady line and plenty of time to stop.

  • About 40 km on a flat former railway path
  • Only around 180 m of climbing in total
  • Traffic-free riding at your own pace
  • Suited to families and relaxed riders
  • The flattest route on the site

Who the greenway day suits

This is the easiest full day on the site. With about 180 m of climbing spread over 40 km, there are no sustained hills, so it works for families with older children, people returning to cycling and riders who simply prefer a calm day. You do not need to be fit in a sporting sense, but you should be comfortable sitting on a bike for several hours with breaks. Ask the partner about minimum age and child seats when booking, as those details vary.

The route and the terrain

The ride follows an old railway alignment, which is why it is so flat: railways were built to avoid steep gradients, and that shape survives in the path. Expect a continuous, traffic-free line heading towards the coast, with long straight sections and gentle bends rather than junctions. The 40 km distance is best treated as a full day with stops for coffee, photographs and lunch, not as a timed effort. Because there is no road traffic, it is also a relaxed introduction to touring.

Pace and how the day feels

The day is ridden at your own pace, so a slower rider is never made to feel behind. Total ridden time is modest compared with the Costa Brava coast road ride at 118 km, which leaves room for long stops. The low climbing figure means you can talk while riding and finish without being exhausted. If your group has mixed ability, this is the safer choice over the riverside gravel intro, where loose surfaces need more concentration.

Choosing it over other tours

Pick the greenway if flat ground and no traffic matter more than variety. If you want a shorter, urban outing, the old town e-bike ride takes two hours. If you want to learn gravel, the riverside gravel intro at 34 km is the next step up. For riders who want 1,000 m or more of climbing in a day, the forest gravel loop is a better match than this route.

Best time to go

Mallorca is mild for much of the year, and a flat route like this stays pleasant outside the hottest weeks. Spring and autumn usually give comfortable temperatures for a full day in the saddle. In midsummer, aim to ride early and carry extra water, since a long, flat path can offer little shade. Check with the partner about the running season when booking.

Good to know

How hilly is the Mallorca greenway day?

Barely at all. The 40 km route has about 180 m of climbing in total, which is the least of any tour on the site. The railway origin of the path keeps gradients gentle.

Is there traffic on the route?

No. The ride follows a traffic-free former railway path towards the coast, so you are away from road traffic for the day.

Is it suitable for families?

Yes, it is the best fit for families on this site because it is flat and the pace is yours. Check the partner about age limits and child equipment when booking.

How does it differ from the riverside gravel intro?

The greenway is flatter and longer at 40 km against 34 km, and it is a touring ride. The riverside gravel intro is aimed at people learning to ride loose surfaces.
