Often cited as Mallorca's toughest climb, Sobremunt starts gently near Bunyolí Nou (off the Ma-1041 near Establiments) but quickly becomes relentlessly steep. This is a brutal ascent, unlike the island's typically gentler climbs.
Prepare for sustained gradients well above 10%, peaking near 22%. The road surface deteriorates significantly in the upper half, becoming rough with potholes and loose gravel, demanding concentration and good traction.
Views are limited until the summit viewpoint (Mola de Sobremunt), which offers a unique perspective over Palma bay. Mountain gearing (e.g., 34x32) is strongly recommended.
