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 192.2 km against the 192.8 km the roadbook prints, and 3,408 m of climbing against a published 3,277 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. The route track labels a marker 'Alto del Legionario' at km 79.9 while the roadbook puts that climb at km 83.4; the roadbook position is used. La Vuelta publishes no official climbing total; 3277 m is ProCyclingStats' figure and the official Komoot track gives 3414 m.
