Stage 13 · Almuñécar → LojaVuelta a España 2026 · Hilly · Sep 4

The route

Nearly all the climbing is packed into the first 84 km out of Almuñécar — including the 15% ramps of Las Albuñuelas — before the Puerto de Granada and a flat run into Loja. A break should go the distance; the peloton may let it.
