technical info
First mountainous finish in a stage clearly divided into two parts: the first, up to Ponte Secchia, rises gently across the Po valley, while the last 12 km are much steeper all the way to the finish. The first part is characterised by the crossing of numerous villages in the Reggio Emilia area before entering the Secchia valley and ascending it to the foot of the final, cat. 2, ascent. The last climb, about 11 km, is the first KOM of the Giro and features a first part at around 6%, followed by a slightly easier section after the village of La Collina.
Last kilometres
The last few kilometres are quite nervous. The girls will face a short descent before hitting the ramp that leads to the centre of Toano with gradients of up to 12%. The road climbs steadily to the finish line with gradually decreasing gradients. The finish line is on a straight asphalt road, 300 m long and 6 m wide.
