Cycling in Ariany – The Smallest Village of the Pla

Ariany is the smallest municipality on Mallorca — a single hilltop village of a few hundred people in the heart of the Pla de Mallorca, surrounded by almond and carob fields and some of the emptiest tarmac on the island.

The lanes to Petra, Maria de la Salut and Santa Margalida are pan-flat and almost car-free — perfect recovery riding or the middle section of a long Pla loop. Ariany is about 58 minutes (73 km) from our shop in Paguera; we deliver bikes across the island, so you can start riding right from your finca.

Ride Idea: Ariany to the Puig de Bonany

A loop around Mallorca's smallest municipality: ride to Maria de la Salut and Santa Margalida, then south to Petra and up the Puig de Bonany (2.2 km, 154 m) — the sanctuary climb starts just 8 km from Ariany. Return on the empty lane to the village — about 37 km in total.
