Arrival in Montserrat for the third time
The 2025 stage will be the third time in history that La Volta has arrived in Montserrat. It already did so in 1960 and 1995. This year, it will be one of the highlights of the 104th edition, just in the year in which the thousandth anniversary of the founding of the Monastery of Montserrat is celebrated.
The 1960 stage was a time trial that linked Monistrol de Montserrat with the Monastery and was won by the Mallorcan Antonio Karmany, one of the best climbers of the time. The 1995 stage started from Manlleu. The winner was the French cyclist Laurent Jalabert, one of the most charismatic riders of the 1990s. The 2025 stage starts in Sant Vicenç de Castellet.
