Cycling in Petra – 360° Views over the Pla
Petra, birthplace of the missionary Juníper Serra, is a honey-stone farming town in the middle of the Pla de Mallorca — the island's flat, windmill-dotted breadbasket that most visitors race straight through.
They miss the Puig de Bonany: a perfectly engineered sanctuary climb rising alone out of the plain, with a monastery, picnic terraces and a genuine 360° panorama on top. Interactive map, photos and GPX download below.
Ride Idea: Petra Village-Hopping
Beyond its own Bonany climb, Petra is a perfect base for flat village-hopping: ride to Vilafranca de Bonany, Sant Joan and Sineu and return via Ariany — about 42 km of quiet farm roads. Add the Bonany climb at the start or the end for a 360° view over the Pla.
