technical info

Mountain stage, the so-called Tappone. The first 70 kilometres are practically flat across the Mantuan and Veronese plains until reaching Valpolicella. After Negrar di Valpolicella, the pink caravan tackles in sequence the climbs of Fane, Righi, Marano di Valpolicella and Cavalo, which, with the final climb of Fosse, bring the altitude difference to about 3000 m, all concentrated in the last 100 km. The only breathing space is the Adige valley, before tackling the final 9 km climb from Peri to Fosse at about 9%.
Last kilometres
Uphill finish for 9 km with hairpin bends. Last bend at 150 m from the finish line.
