Vuelta Femenina 2023 Route stage 4: Cuenca - Guadalajara

After the start in Cuenca – which is famous for its Casas Colgadas, houses hanging over a deep gorge – the first 15 kilometres go ever so slightly uphill that’s it’s arguably flat.

With roughly 35 kilometres remaining La Vuelta Femenina starts descending to the base of the Alto de Hurche. As mentioned, the riders crest the 4 kilometres climb at 4.8% with 12 kilometres to go. The first half is flat, after which stage 4 closes with a descend to the line..

Finishing venue Guadelajara is situated roughly 50 kilometres to the northeast of Madrid. It’s a town with a population of 85,000 people.

The intermediate sprint comes with time bonuses of 6, 4 and 2 seconds, while the first three riders on the line gain 10, 6 and 4 seconds.
