Ruta del Sol 2021 Route stage 4: Baza - Cúllar Vega

Ruta del Sol 2021 stage 4 Friday 21 May - The 4th stage of the Ruta del Sol looks promising for the sprinters. At 182.9 kilometres, the peloton travels from Iznájar to Cúllar Vega, just west of Granada.

The riders traverse the rolling roads to the north of the Sierra Nevada. The route is far from flat, but the climbs are never excessively demanding either. Chances are that it will come down the a bunch sprint in the streets of Cúllar Vega.

Although the Sierra Nevada looms to the east the area is as good as flat. So a bunch sprint is the most likely outcome in the town of 7,100 people.

The last bunch sprints in the Vuelta a Andalucía happened two editions ago. In 2019, Matteo Trentin took the spoils in Alhaurín de la Torre and in Torredonjimeno.
