Stage 12

Ourense Termal – Estación de montaña de Manzaneda 137.4 km

Essentially a hockey stick stage except in Spain they make their hockey sticks out of craggy olive branches.

Estimated finish time:17:20-17:40 CEST

Montañero of the Day: Primož Roglič

Looks like a prime candidate for a late irresistible 500 m dash from Rog. The climb is very mellow though by Vuelta standards.
