Drivers will make a midday stop at Los Acantilados de Los Gigantes in Santiago del Teide before heading to Santa Cruz de La Palma in the afternoon.

Afterwards, participants will return to Santa Cruz de La Palma. On November 2nd, the rally will make its way back to Tenerife.

The second weekend begins on November 7th with the fourth stage, running between Santa Cruz and La Laguna. The classic cars will be showcased in La Laguna's historic center. On November 8th, the fifth stage will lead the rally through Las Cañadas del Teide and the island's southern region, including a stop in Santiago del Teide. The sixth and final stage, on November 9th, will be a circuit along Rambla de Santa Cruz and Avenida Benito Pérez Armas.
