Vuelta a España
Final Week

Stage 17 sees the penultimate Summit Finish of the 2025 Vuelta a España and you’ll be there, on the climb, to witness what promises to be an action-packed finish.

Our Logistics Team will have set up our Race-Viewing Hospitality Marquee towards the top of the climb, which will be buzzing with thousands of passionate fans excited to see this penultimate mountain stage finish. Enjoy the atmosphere from the comfort of our Private Hospitality Marquee with catered food, drinks, and satellite TV race coverage to keep you entertained as you wait for the race to approach.

A unique experience today as you head over to the Stage Start in Valladolid to witness the start of the Individual Time Trial. You’ll have privileged access to the VIP Departure Village, a great place to mingle and meet the teams and individual riders as they prepare for the start of today’s Time Trial.

From Valladolid, you’ll head over to your next hotel in the spectacular town of La Granja de San Ildefonso, and, time permitting, we’ll organize a short ride to nearby Segovia, famous for its Roman aquaduct, built in the 1st century and still in use today.

A flat stage for the Vuelta a España peloton today, so we’ll take the opportunity to discover the magnificent Sierra de Guadarrama mountains that lie between Segovia and the capital city Madrid.

Leaving from the hotel, you’ll head north to the town of Navafría and the start of the 11km climb to the Puerto de Navafría at an elevation of just under 1800m. Enjoy the descent from the Navafría and the short ride along the shores of the Pinilla Reservoir to Rascafría, and the start of the climb to the Puerto de Cotos at 1850m. From the Cotos you’ll ride through the ski station at the Puerto de Navacerrada, which sits at the bottom of the brutal climb to Bola del Mundo, scene of tomorrow’s Vuelta stage.

The brutally steep climb to the Bola del Mundo sets the scene for the final mountain stage of the 2025 Vuelta a España. This epic stage features 5 categorised climbs and a summit finish that includes the climb to the Puerto de Navacerrada, followed by the 3km concrete road to the Bola del Mundo, at an average grade of 12.5%. Your entire ride today will be on the race route, starting at the Stage Start in Robleda de Chavela and finishing on top of Bola del Mundo.

Enjoy this thrilling final mountain stage from the comfort of our Private Hospitality Marquee with catered food, drinks, and satellite TV race coverage to keep you entertained as you wait for the race to approach the final climb of the 2025 Vuelta a España.

The 2025 Vuelta comes to a close with the typical finishing circuit in the center of Madrid, and you’ll be there to witness history unfold from the luxury of the VIP lounge at the Stage Finish.

Before heading into Madrid for the Stage Finish you’ll have a short morning ride over the Puerto de Navacerrada and the classic Puerto de la Morcuera.

Your trip to the Vuelta a España ends at the Hotel Catalonia Gran Via on Monday September 15 after breakfast.

Please note, we won’t be providing a drop-off service on Monday morning. Both Madrid Airport and Madrid Train Station are short taxi rides from the hotel. Our staff (and the hotel staff) will be available to help you reserve transport to the airport or train station.
