How this stage was measured
The course comes from the official Komoot tour embedded on the organiser’s stage page, not from a route planner joining towns. VeloWorkout measures 184.2 km against the 184.7 km the roadbook prints, and 2,712 m of climbing against a published 2,669 m. Elevation is carried by the official track itself.
Not yet raced as of 1 September 2026, so this is the planned route and it may still be altered before the stage is run. La Vuelta publishes no official climbing total; 2669 m is ProCyclingStats' figure and the official Komoot track gives 2716 m.
