The second day of racing at La Vuelta España Femenina offers no flat terrain across 109.8 kilometres from Lobios to San Cibrao das Viñas, only constant climbs and ascents. The route moves north from Lobios, situated near the border of Portugal, with 2,143 metres of elevation gain.
There are lots of opportunities for attacks and a breakaway to thrive, though riders will most likely not take huge risks if the forecast of rain holds true and the descents become slippery again line stage 2. There are no mountain points on offer and only one intermediate sprint with 29.8km to go.
