Stage Description

This stage crosses the border between Andalusia and Extremadura through the dehesa of Los Pedroches. The 30 km link Hinojosa del Duque (Córdoba) with Monterrubio de la Serena (Badajoz) through a landscape of endless pasture. Monterrubio is famous for its oil fair and is located in the region of La Serena in Badajoz, land of pastures, merino cattle and the famous Serena cheese.
This long stage marks the passage of Andalusia to Extremadura. The route passes through the La Serena comarca, one of the most sparsely populated and wild areas on the peninsula. The profile is a continuous rise and fall. The landscape is austere in beauty, with large expanses of grasslands and low mountains. It's a day of great solitude. Arrival at Monterrubio de la Serena, already in the province of Badajoz, famous for its olive oil, is the reward for a hard day's work.
