With the last weeks of summer and the start of the new academic year, many athletes begin to plan their new season of competitions. It's time to look for an event, mark it on the calendar, and start training for the big goal.
Training and enjoying a sports holiday is an option increasingly chosen by tourists with a healthy lifestyle, who also prefer the months of September or October to the hottest months of summer.
In recent years, Mallorca has established itself as an excellent sports tourist destination. Not only because of the high quality of its accommodation and tourist establishments. To this we must add an extraordinary climate that allows outdoor sports to be practised all year round, an enviable natural environment for the practice of many sports and world-class sports facilities. Mallorca also holds sporting events that attract sportsmen and women from all over the world: Mallorca 312, IronMan Mallorca, Kill the Hill, Palma Marathon and Half Marathon, etc.
In the case of cycling, Mallorca has all the necessary ingredients to enjoy a top-level cycling holiday or stage. Proof of this is that Mallorca has become a favourite destination for cyclists from all over the world, as well as for professional and amateur cycling teams that take advantage of the winter and spring months to prepare for the season.
Alcudia is a perfect example of a cycling and sports destination. Its geographical location allows you to combine mountain stages in the Serra de Tramuntana or the Formentor peninsula with flatter stages in the Bay of Pollença, Playa de Muro, the Natural Park of S'Albufera or the Pla de Mallorca. Alcudia also has several specialised cycling shops, cycling cafés and bicycle rental points. And best of all, you'll rarely cycle alone, you'll always find a fellow cyclist riding along its spectacular roads, so the cycling atmosphere is extraordinary.
Botel Alcudiamar is an ideal accommodation for sportsmen and women. It has space for parking bicycles, a bike rental service, repair, cleaning and maintenance materials, and its Cycling Friendly Silver badge makes it an ideal accommodation for cyclists. Its Fitness and Wellness areas and its direct access to Alcudia Beach will allow you to combine cycling with indoor training and swimming. Add to this the varied offer of gastronomy, leisure and nautical activities in Alcudiamar. You will have everything at hand to enjoy your holidays in total comfort.
Other advantages of cycling in Mallorca at the end of the summer or during the autumn is that, during the months of September, October or November, the weather is still mild, less hot than in the summer months, and with much less traffic on the roads, both vehicles and cyclists. Climbing the Monastery of Lluc or the Lighthouse of Formentor in October, practically alone, is a luxury of enormous beauty. Imagine being able to swim without wetsuit in the early morning or at dusk and finishing with a healthy dinner at Botel Alcudiamar.
Whether you are looking for a mild climate or a spectacular natural setting for your sporting holiday, without the crowds of other months of the year, Botel Alcudiamar could be your destination to start your season.
