Raiguer

Raiguer is one of two parts of Mallorca that hold no extreme at all — not the highest and not the lowest in any of the four measures this site takes of a road network. It sits 3rd of six on the measure it is most middling in, at 15.9%. That is why no guide leads with it, and it is also the most useful thing about it: a week here is not shaped by any one property of the roads.

The network, four ways

Four properties of a road network, each measured the same way in all six comarques, so a rank means something. Raiguer holds an end of none of them — it is between third and fifth in all four.

Road per square kilometreKilometres of ridable road for each square kilometre of land.3 / 61.70Palma — 2.55

How we got this A run of road belongs to the comarca its midpoint is in; a junction to the comarca it stands in. Bridges are found on the whole island graph and then attributed, so no figure here depends on where a boundary cuts a road.Computed from 5,082 km of riding road across six comarques.Computed 14 August 2026.

The longest stretch with no turning

The longest run of ridable road inside Raiguer that offers no junction at all is 8.0 km long, on the Ma-2130. The nearest summit this site measures is Coll de sa Batalla (0.1 km off). Once you are on it there is nothing to decide and no way to cut the day short, which is worth knowing before you commit to it with an hour of light left.

Roads with no way round

Three roads here would cut the network in two if they closed. None of them is cut off altogether, though: in every case a way round exists and it runs through somebody's street, which is a detour rather than a route.

Roads inside Raiguer whose closure would split the network

RoadRiding it holdsNearest town, straight lineAlternative
camí de Campanet10.3 kmInca, 5.2 kmA village street only
Camí de Coanegra6.9 kmSóller, 11.1 kmA village street only
Ma-34605.6 kmPort d'Alcúdia, 0.6 kmA village street only

How we got this A committed kilometre is one on an edge whose removal disconnects the network — a road with no alternative at any length of detour, so a ride that uses it uses it twice. What a road holds is the kilometres of riding on the smaller side of the split its removal makes. The larger side is the rest of Mallorca and is not a statement about a place. The town is the nearest measured base to the middle of the road in a straight line, which on this island is not the distance you would ride: it locates the road, it does not tell you how to get to it.Computed from The island road graph — 5,082 km, 8,360 junctions.Computed 14 August 2026.

The climbs here

Ten climb-sides are measured with their summit inside Raiguer; three of them are published, and all are below.

How we got this A climb belongs to the comarca its summit stands in, which is the rule the region join applies — not the comarca it is ridden from. Both sides of a col therefore count in the same place even where the villages beneath them do not.Computed from 122 measured climb-sides across Mallorca, 3 published.Computed 14 August 2026.

Official routes through here

Four of the island's eight signposted routes with a published track cross Raiguer, and together they bring 92.2 km of riding inside the boundary. The distance below is what each route rides here, not how long the route is.

How we got this Measured by walking each published GPX track against the comarca boundaries and giving every segment to the comarca its midpoint stands in. "Share of route" is how much of that whole route is inside Raiguer.Computed from Every consecutive pair of track points is one segment; its metres go to the comarca its midpoint stands in. Shares divide by the placed length, not the walked length, so ground no boundary covers is reported separately rather than attributed..Computed 1 September 2026.

Staying here

Two towns inside Raiguer are compared as a base for a week — how many climbs start within reach of each, how much climbing that is, and how long the transfer is. One more was measured and does not carry enough registered accommodation to compare.

What publishers say about it

Nobody in this site's survey of ten publishers makes a claim about Raiguer by name. That is the finding, and it is the same finding as its absence from the guides.

If this is not it

The part of Mallorca least like Raiguer, measured across the same four orders, is Serra de Tramuntana. That is not a recommendation and there is no judgement in it: it is simply where to look next if what is above is the opposite of what you want from a week.

Where this boundary comes from

Raiguer is not a jurisdiction. No council governs it, no law defines it, and the six-part division it belongs to is a geographer's, published in 1994 and carrying no official rank. It is built out of whole municipalities, which is what makes it stable enough to measure against, and OpenStreetMap carries its outline. Every figure above is attributed by that outline: a run of road belongs to the comarca its midpoint stands in, and a climb to the one its summit stands in.

Source Viquipèdia (Catalan Wikipedia) · checked 28 August 2026The article’s own words for the status are «que no té rang oficial», and it attributes the six-part division to Lluch i Dubon’s Geografia de les Illes Balears (1994) — a book whose publisher, Lleonard Muntaner, still lists it. This is a tertiary source and is labelled as one: it is cited for the *status* of the division, which is a negative fact (no instrument creates these boundaries), and a negative fact has no primary document to cite by construction. The boundaries this site measures against are OpenStreetMap’s admin_level=7 relations, each carrying the Wikidata id of the comarca it represents, which is the join that makes the two agree.que no té rang oficial
