Stage Description

This is the royal stage of the Pyrenees, the crossing of the Somport Pass. It's a high mountain day with considerable descent and spectacular landscape. The road follows the ancient Roman road and offers panoramic views of the Pyrenees. Arrival at the Somport Pass, over 1,600 meters above sea level, is an exciting moment of triumph. This marks the end of the Via Tolosana and the entry into Spain, the beginning of the Aragonese Way.
