This is the third testing day following the first individual time trial and previous day's mountain-top finish. The riders will face a 214-kilometre parcours running from Benasque to Andorra with two category 2 climbs, one category 1 and the final beyond category climb to the finish in Arcalís.
The Arcalís covers 15 kilometres, with an average 5.6% slope and sustained sections of 8.5%. The summit is at 2,200 metres altitude and should suit the pure climbers.
