The schedule is as follows:
Day 1: Arrival to Poblet

While riding through calm roads you'll notice the positive slope as it goes up (+ 7382 ft). We'll go through villages like Vallclara, Vilanova de Prades, Cornudella, among others. Before heading up to Siurana, we'll do a recovery stop to recharge batteries and take on the Santa Maria Hermitage climb.
Along the way you'll be able to appreciate extensive and wide open vineyards.
Ascending to Prades your physical and psychological strength will be tested, only to enjoy even more the thrilling upcoming descent. This day we'll travel 67 mi.
Day 3: Poblet - Poblet
