About this climb

Sobremunt is a lane that leaves the road from Palma to Esporles and climbs straight into the hills. It is short but very steep: about 2 km at 9.6 % on average, gaining 190 m.

The first kilometre averages around 8.5 %, the second close to 11 %, with short ramps much steeper than that. The asphalt ends at the top, at about 545 m, and the lane continues as gravel, so road riders turn around there.

On a climb this short and steep, the calculator’s All out effort is a realistic target, as long as you start at a pace you can hold to the top.

The figures come from OpenStreetMap and the official Spanish terrain model, not yet from a ride by a local.

The second kilometre is the steeper one, above 10 %. Start easy: there is nowhere to recover once the road kicks up.

The estimate uses your weight plus 8 kg for bike and kit, a share of your FTP (75 % easy, 85 % steady, 95 % all out) and an allowance for rolling resistance and air. Wind, heat and traffic are not included.
