Café to Castle - TRAIL RUNNING MALLORCA

Café to Castle For those who are staying close or central to the island’s capital, we’ve created a fun loop starting at our store in Plaça del Rosari. No need for a bus transfer. Just lace up and vamos. It’s a 10km run, perfectly doable with regular running shoes. If there is one word that comes to mind here, it’s stairs. You’ll definitely bump into some uphill manmade traversees on this sojourn. The road is very easy to find: run towards the harbour, then find your way up in the direction of Castillo Bellver. In this green lung of the city there are tonnes of fun trails (still run-able with normal shoes) to explore. The route we’ve created follows the best road, with again some stairs. Don’t worry, normal inclines are represented here as well. Total meters up: 160. When leaving the park, go back down to the harbour, do a fast stretch following the cycling road and head back to the store. For those who are used to running a stable 10k in an hour, including the inclines this will take approximately 1h 30. READ MORE MONASTERY LLUC Created for those who are willing to spend some time up in the forest and mountains, it follows a section of the GR221 trail. VIEW MORE CAP FORMENTOR A route with three variants that takes you north all the way up to Cap Formentor for a sublime view. VIEW MORE SÓLLER A trail run of 11km with gorgeous changes of scenery and terrain with trails that lead from the beach to Sóller. VIEW MORE SA CALOBRA Sa Calobra is a name most people who know of the island will have heard. So we had no choice but to offer you a trail running alternative. VIEW MORE ON THE BEACH If you’re not looking for a brutal mountain run, take in the beautiful tranquil beach, Colonia de Saint Jordi, a protected nature reserve. VIEW MORE
