The Spanish La Vuelta has a similar tradition in finishing in Madrid. But not this year! The race finishes in S<a href=\"https:\/\/www.galiciatips.com\/en\/destinations\/santiago-de-compostela\/\">antiago de Compostela<\/a>, Galicia&#8217;s capital. The last race also not is a traditional gala performance ending in a mass sprint. In Santiago the racers have to work hard in an individual time trial. Santiago de Compostela is selected as end of the race in honour of the holy year, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galiciatips.com\/en\/about-galicia\/public-holidays-in-galicia\/xacobeo-the-holy-year\/\">Xacobeo of 2021<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s not the first time Santiago is the finish of La Vuelta. Also in 2014 the finish was on the Praza de Obradoiro in front of the cathedral. That year it was 21 years since La Vuelta did not finish in Madrid. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2014 the racers first completed two mountain stages in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galiciatips.com\/en\/destinations\/ribeira-sacra\/\">La Ribeira Sacra<\/a>. The last stage was an individual time trail, just like it will be this year. The Italian racer Adriano Molari won the time trial and Spanish Alberto Contador was crowned winner of La Vuelta a Espa\u00f1a in 2014.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last year, in 2020, La Vuelta also crossed Galicia. The race visited <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galiciatips.com\/en\/destinations\/ourense\/\">Ourense<\/a>, among others. This resulted in beautiful pictures of the city, its surroundings and off course the thermal springs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.galiciatips.com\/nl\/files\/2021\/02\/Vuelta-de-Espana-in-Galicie-2021.png?resize=437%2C428&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1123\"\/><figcaption>La Vuelta 2021, 3 stages in Galicia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Vuelta stage 19 \u2013 a breakaway in Galicia?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Friday Septembre 3th the races will enter Galicia. This will happen during stage 19. The start of the race is in the coastal village Tapia de Casariego. A village in neighbouring province Asturias. Halfway through the stage the cyclists will enter Galicia. The stage finishes at Monforte de Lemos, in the province of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galiciatips.com\/en\/destinations\/lugo-the-roman-city\/\">Lugo<\/a>. <br>This day is a mid-mountain stage and will be marked by many cyclists as a possible day to have a breakaway. Could get exiting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Vuelta stage 20 \u2013 Rias Baixas<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The penultimate stage of La Vuelta starts in the coastal town of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galiciatips.com\/en\/destinations\/sanxenxo\/\">Sanxenxo<\/a>. During 173 kilometres the races will pass through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galiciatips.com\/en\/destinations\/las-rias-baixas\/\">Las Rias Baixas<\/a>. After the start they will go south till the Portugese border. Via some small climbs the stage finishes near by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galiciatips.com\/en\/destinations\/vigo\/\">Vigo<\/a>. The finish is on a small climb at the viewpoint Castro de Hervill in the village of Mos. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This stage promises to be entertaining for the audience. The course is somewhat of a so-called &#8216;classical&#8217;, like the famous race of Liege-Bastogne-Liege.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Vuelta stage 21 \u2013 timetrail Padr\u00f3n to Santiago de Compostela<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>La Vuelta&#8217;s final stage is a time trail with start in Padr\u00f3n and finish in Santiago de Compostela. Remarkable detail: In 1933 this exact time trail was completed during La Vuelta de Espa\u00f1a. Starting place Padr\u00f3n is mainly known for it&#8217;s Pimientos de Padr\u00f3n. I&#8217;m curious to know who of the cyclists dares to pick one!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After leaving Padr\u00f3n the races will take the road on their one to Santiago de Compostela. On their way they will pass some small climbs and during the stage the wind also can have effect. The parcours is called a technical stage and it promises to be a decisive stage for the final rankings!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>For more information about the race and its stages visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lavuelta.es\/en\/\">the official site of La Vuelta<\/a>. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m already looking forward to beautiful pictures of Galicia during these stages.
