How it 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 167.0 km from Vera to Calar Alto against the 166.6 km the roadbook prints, and 4,522 m of climbing against a published 4,475 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; 4475 m is ProCyclingStats' figure and the official Komoot track gives 4527 m.
