Three different ways up the Piornal crown this tricky stage which should prove a key battle for the GC contenders.
The first ascent is via the Alto de la Desespera (3.7km at 9.4%), then the climb is tackled via the traditional approach past the Monastery of Yuste (13.5km at 5%) before a final climb via the Jerte Valley (also 13.5km at 5%).
None of the three are particularly challenging taken in isolation, but at the end of a long stage and amid a leg-sapping final week, there could be some damage.
HOW CAN I WATCH LA VUELTA ON TV AND LIVESTREAM?
Each and every stage will be broadcast on Eurosport and GCN+, bookended by The Breakaway, presented by Orla Chennaoui.
