The Giro d’Italia Women 2026 will include two summit finishes including a finish up Sestriere after the Colle delle Finestre.
The nine-stage route, one more than 2025, will stretch out across a total of 1,153.7km, all in the north of Italy. The peloton will tackle 12,5000m of elevation over the uphill time trial, three flat stages, three hilly stages and two tougher mountains days.
Stage seven – Sorbolo Mezzani to Salice Terme – is the longest stage of the race at 165km, with hills awaiting, but it is stage eight that is the big one. It is only 101km long, but the stage from Rivoli to Sestriere apes the famous finish from this year’s men’s race. The Colle delle Finestre and its gravel lies in wait before the finish to Sestriere itself.
