Sa Calobra (Coll dels Reis) by bike
Sa Calobra is Mallorca's most famous climb: a ribbon of hairpins engineered into the Tramuntana cliffs, including the 270-degree "tie knot" loop. Because the road dead-ends at the sea, every rider who descends has to climb back out. Gradients stay remarkably consistent, which makes it a popular benchmark effort.
Summit elevation: 682 m

FAQ
How long is the Sa Calobra (Coll dels Reis) climb?
From Port de Sa Calobra, the climb is about 9.5 km with roughly 673 m of elevation gain at 7.1% average gradient (based on the simplified profile used by this simulator; published figures vary slightly by source).
How long does it take to cycle up Sa Calobra (Coll dels Reis)?
It depends almost entirely on your power-to-weight ratio. Use the simulator on this page: enter your FTP and weight, and a physics model (air resistance, rolling resistance, gravity) estimates your time on the gradient profile.
How accurate is the time simulation?
The simulator uses a simplified segment profile and standard road bike assumptions (CdA 0.32, Crr 0.004, 8 kg bike). It does not model wind, drafting, altitude, surface or pacing errors, so treat the result as a realistic estimate, not a guarantee.
How should I train for Sa Calobra (Coll dels Reis)?
Sustained climbs reward steady threshold and sweet spot work plus a power-to-weight improvement over weeks, not days. TrainCraft builds structured cycling training plans and adapts them when you miss sessions, using fatigue science (CTL/ATL/TSB).
