Profiles & Route Vuelta Burgos Feminas 2023

Profiles. From the 18th to the 21st of May the women's peloton are back on the road in Spain with another World Tour event. It's the Vuelta a Burgos Feminas, the final race of the very intense block of stage-racing this month.

The race consists of four stages. Three are expected to end in sprints however two of them with slight hilltop finishes. The final day of the race will see the famous summit finish at Lagunas de Neila which will decide the overall classification.

Stage 1 will see the riders head into Medina de Pomar. It's a 115-kilometer stage which is the most likely regular bunch sprint.

Stage 2 is a relatively hilly day, but a bunch sprint is to expect. However, whilst the profile barely shows it, the finale into Lerma is anything but flat, it is a small town finish in the middle of a village where positioning and explosivity will be everything.

The third day of racing isn't too different. A bunch sprint is virtually impossible to be prevented, however the sprint into Aranda de Duero will have some uphill gradients which will make a meaningful difference into the line.

The best is saved for last, the most famous climb in the region will see the ending to the race. It's a day with 121 kilometers on the menu which end at the Lagunas de Neila, the ascent is 12 kilometers long at over 6%, whilst the final three kilometers average almost 10% average gradient.
