The race:
O Gran Camiño (in English, "The Great Way") is a four-day stage race run in Galicia in far northwestern Spain.
The race is relatively new, its first edition having been run in 2022.
The race's name was inspired by the 1,000-year old pilgrimage route to the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia, called the "Camino de Santiago".
