Some editions were suspended due to wars. The very first volta was 363km in total with a first stage from Barcelona to Tarragona via Sitges. The second stage was from Tarragona to Lleida. And the third from Lerida to Barcelona. Girona was in the first Volta because the roads were not good enough in those days.
