SEdR - Can Tomàs - SEdR

🚴‍♀️ Racing Bikes on Ibiza – 70 km of pure cycling pleasure through hills, villages, and coastline 🇪🇸☀️
A sporty loop through the heart of the island, with the perfect balance between effort and relaxation

🗺️ Route Description

🏁 Start: Santa Eulària des Riu
Your adventure begins in the cozy coastal town of Santa Eulària, a quiet yet vibrant place on the east side of Ibiza. You warm up along the PM-810, a rolling road that gently rises towards the interior. 🚲🌅

🏡 Santa Gertrudis de Fruitera – charm in the heart of the island
Via the PMV-810-2, you cycle to Santa Gertrudis, a typical whitewashed village with an inviting square – perfect for a short coffee stop. On the way, there's the first real climb: 2.5 km at 4-5%, a constant slope without peaks, ideal for warming up your legs. ☕🏞️

🚴 Toward Sant Rafel de sa Creu – through the interior
After Santa Gertrudis, you continue your way toward Sant Rafel de sa Creu via the PMV-812-1. The road gently undulates and offers beautiful views over the central plain of Ibiza. A calm part of the ride with good asphalt quality and little traffic. 🌾

⛰️ Westward to Can Tomàs – punchy climbs
After Sant Rafel, you dive into the hilly west toward Can Tomàs via the PMV-812. Here it gets more playful: short climbs of 8-10% and quick descents provide variety and challenge. Perfect terrain for tempo intervals or simply enjoying the play with the landscape. 💪🔥

🌲 Northward to Sant Llorenç de Balafia – natural beauty
Via small rural roads, you ride north to the tranquil Sant Llorenç de Balafia, deep in the green interior of Ibiza. Here begins one of the most beautiful sections of the ride: a winding climb of 3 km at an average of 5%, surrounded by fragrant pine forests. As you ascend, the views open up, and on clear days you can even see the Spanish coastline in the distance. 🌄🌿

⬇️ Technical descent to Can Negret
From the north, you descend via narrow, winding roads towards Can Negret. This descent requires attention and control – technical and challenging, but with a high fun factor. Afterwards, it's a relaxing roll down over gently descending roads toward the coast. 🌀🧭

🏖️ Finish: Santa Eulària des Riu – time to relax
Back by the sea in Santa Eulària, you can savor your ride. Finish off with an espresso on a terrace, a fresh smoothie, or jump straight into the Mediterranean Sea for a refreshing dip. 🌊🍹
