Watch the 2026 Vuelta a Andalucía Ruta del Sol for an early-season Spanish stage race featuring a host of major names, including Tom Pidcock (Pinarello-Q36.5), Aleksandr Vlasov (Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe), and Tim Wellens (UAE Team Emirates-XRG).
The 2026 Vuelta a Andalucía Ruta del Sol takes place over five stages from Wednesday, February 18 to Saturday, February 22.
The race will feature a host of hilly stages suited to puncheurs and sprinters, though there are no summit finishes along the way. The opening two stages feature the most elevation at 2,700 metres, though much of the climbing comes well before the finish on both days.
Instead, look to stages 3 and 5 to Lopera and Lucera for the most challenging finishes of the race, with both days featuring late climbs on which the GC contenders can mount attacks.
