The anniversary edition - it is the 80th edition - will start on August 23 in Italy at the Palace of Venaria Reale just outside Turin. The finish of stage 1 is in Novara. It is the sixth time that the Vuelta has started abroad.
After two more stages in Italy, the fourth will take the riders to France, where they will cross the famous Montgenèvre and Lautaret passes. The riders then fly to Spain, where a 20 km team time trial in Figueres is on the program. The next day will see the first major mountain stage to Andorra, the fourth country through which the Vuelta 2025 will pass.
A total of five high mountain stages and six low mountain stages await the peloton. An individual time trial over 26 km is scheduled for the fourth-last day before the Tour of Spain ends as usual in Madrid on September 14. This year, the Slovenian Primoz Roglic triumphed for the fourth time.
