Cycling in the Serra de Tramuntana
"The views are breathtaking; it feels like you can touch the mountains with your hands." That's how enamored the Vicens family, owners of the spectacular Finca Albellons on the island of Mallorca , are about their hotel.
Its location at the foot of the Serra de Tramuntana mountains makes this small, family-run hotel an ideal retreat for cycling and hiking enthusiasts . The Vicens family knows the best routes and, therefore, provides guests with GPS tracks of their favorite cycling routes around Mallorca through the Bikefriendly mobile app . This allows guests to easily follow these routes on their phones and discover Mallorca's stunning landscapes via circular routes starting from their accommodation.
"At the end of each stage, guests can enjoy a hydromassage bath in their room, the terraces of the estate, and a swimming pool with views and tranquility that overwhelm all the senses," Juan Vicens proudly states.
Agrotourism, rest and cycling
The Vicens family comes from a background of farmers who, in the mid-90s, decided to reinvent themselves and invest in agritourism , a booming trend on the Balearic island. They became the managers of a small rural hotel that quickly became a favorite destination for German tourists seeking the perfect combination of relaxation, wellness, and sport.
The Albellons estate has 20 hectares of olive groves whose fruit is used to produce Albellons oil in the town of Caimar , which can then be tasted at the breakfasts, lunches and dinners served at the estate.
The hotel has 16 rooms divided into five categories. The Premium rooms, of course, all include whirlpool tubs and a terrace with Balinese beds for relaxing in privacy.
Facilities typical of a Bikefriendly hotel
Just as agritourism experienced its boom in the late 90s, the Vicens family has noticed how, in recent times, more and more cyclists are traveling to Mallorca to enjoy a cycling holiday.
That's why they've chosen to differentiate themselves and become a Bikefriendly hotel , providing a cycling space with bike racks, locks and tools where their guests can safely store their bikes and carry out maintenance after each ride.
Bike rental and cycling routes in Mallorca
Furthermore, at Finca Albellons they facilitate bicycle rental when booking a room, offering their guests the possibility of finding their bike waiting for them on the premises upon arrival.
