The first full day visits the Punilla Valley, north of the town, before ending with another super special inside Cordoba's soccer stadium. The second day, the longest, is a mix of morning stages in the same area before faster roads in the Calamuchita valley to the south. The final leg is based south-west of Carlos Paz in the Traslasierra mountains. It comprises two passes over the rocky El Condor and a single run through Giulio Césare, two of the most famous and toughest stages in the championship which peak at 2195m. A second pass over the Cordoba stadium test ends the action. Drivers face 22 stages covering 346.55km in a route of 1383.14km
