Ermita de Betlem

My first and last tour when I am in Mallorca is going to the chapel in the monastery Betlem. Upon arrival: A candle that I am back to health, at the end of the holiday: A candle that I can go home healthy again.

Very quiet street. There is no food in the monastery. You have to take care of that yourself.

For years Betlem is a must, for me one of the most beautiful routes on the island.

Little traffic, beautiful roads, great views ... Any questions?

From the summit you have a great view.
The little serpentines are fun

Betlem is a great ride: it’s tough, but not too tough. The views from the top are awesome, and the monastery itself is a pretty attraction to check out irrespective of cycling. The windy road is also almost void of traffic. Just bear in mind that there’s absolutely nothing for sale at the monastery, so you’ll have to make sure you take enough water with you for the return journey.

If the thirst is too big, turn right before the archway to the monastery on the right, follow the unpaved road about 300m, it is right in front of you, a clean source from which I've drunk many times.

As Erni describes it, my first and last tour from my location Cala Millor, as a rule you are almost alone on the road. As a prelude tour for the next two weeks and as a shooting tour with ☕️ and 🎂 in Arta👋.

A great tour - but you have to go back the same way. The recommended route to the coast is not recommended.
