Itinerary
Tour character
Most of the cycling is on hilly terrain and so from the second stage onwards there are several, sometimes steep, climbs to master each day. The route runs along side roads with little traffic and the so-called Strade Bianche. These are almost traffic-free gravel roads that are easy to cycle on. When entering and leaving the city, you should expect heavy traffic from time to time.
