the day's route - stage 2

THE GREY DUNES OF NIHUIL

 

The competitors will have an early start and a long way to go to join the start of the special stage. But the pace that the drivers will have to keep up on the fi rst very fast part of the route will immediately ensure that they remain extremely focused.

In Nihuil, the grey-coloured sand bears witness to the intense volcanic activity which occurred in the region several thousand years ago.
