About this climb
The narrow road from Artà to the Ermita de Betlem climbs into the hills of the north-east before dropping to the hermitage. From the foot of the climb outside Artà to the high point of the road it measures about 5.8 km and gains 250 m, an average of 4.3 %.
That average hides two different climbs. The first three kilometres are gentle, with a short dip along the way. The last three are much steeper, at 6.5 to 7 %, up to about 375 m. From there the road descends to the Ermita de Betlem, so on the way back you climb about 1.5 km at 6.6 % before the descent to Artà.
Pace it as two efforts: easy on the first half, then the effort the calculator gives you for the steep part.
The figures come from OpenStreetMap and the official Spanish terrain model, not yet from a ride by a local.
