Sunny training in the Balearic Islands

Mallorca is known to be a top destination as well as THE retreat for road bike training camps. Particularly when the temperatures are still too cold for optimal off-the-roll training a little further up north. The Balearic Islands have everything to offer a racing cyclist's heart beats for - for professionals as well as for hobby riders. Not only the great weather conditions attract the roadies but also unique routes - more elevated or not - in front of a breathtaking backdrop and often with a view of the sea. An ideal place, therefore, to prepare for the coming season. However - only those who also rest well and refuel vigorously can use this energy during the races. The following 5 top spots will help you relax luxuriously before and after training sessions.
