The mountain spine of Mallorca, running the length of the UNESCO-listed Serra de Tramuntana past reservoirs, viewpoints and the island’s highest peaks.

From the citrus terraces above Sóller the Ma-10 climbs into the heart of the Tramuntana, threading the Coll de Puig Major area, skirting the Cúber and Gorg Blau reservoirs, passing the monastery at Lluc and finally easing down toward Pollença. It is a long, flowing mountain road of sweeping bends and short tunnels rather than relentless hairpins, with the famous Sa Calobra spur dropping off it midway. Coastal haze, sheer drops and tour-bus traffic in season all feature, so this is less about outright difficulty and more about sustained alpine scenery on good tarmac. Mind tour buses and cyclists on blind bends, frequent tunnels with sudden light changes, and rockfall after heavy rain.
