Stage 10 Sendaviva - El Ferial Larra Belagua (175.3km)

The tenth stage of the Vuelta is 175.3 kilometers long and sets off in the afternoon from the Sendaviva theme park, which is half amusement park and half zoo — and, covering 120 hectares, ranks among the largest theme parks in Europe.

After the start, the riders speed northwards. The first 120 kilometers are rolling but never truly difficult. That changes with the Alto de las Coronas (7.2 kilometers at 4.7%). After a short descent, the riders face a long approach to the final climb, close to the French border. With nine kilometers to go, the final ascent begins to the ski resort — once again — Larra-Belagua (9.3 kilometers at 6.3%). The opening kilometers are the steepest, but then the gradient eases off.
