The stage opens with two classic Apennine climbs: Ovindoli and the Valico delle Capannelle. A long descent then leads toward Teramo. The final part of the stage is characterised by a sequence of steep climbs and short, punchy ramps. Riders tackle Castellalto, with long stretches around 12%, followed by Mosciano Sant’Angelo. At 12 km from the finish comes the Tortoreto climb via Badetta, which reaches gradients of up to 20% in its final section. A short descent precedes approximately 8 km along the seafront to the finish.

Tagliacozzo

Overview

Tagliacozzo, located in the heart of the Abruzzo region and mentioned by Dante in Canto XXVIII of the Inferno, is famous for the 1268 battle that marked the end of Swabian rule. Founded between two rocks, it was a fiefdom of the Orsini and Colonna families. Since the late 19th century, it has been a well-known tourist destination, hosting cultural events such as the Mid-Summer International Festival and Carnival. Among its main yearly events are Holy Week, the Romantic Night, Dante Street, Birrart, and “Cellars in the Rock.”

Martinsicuro

Overview

The Martinsicuro area is located in the Vibrata Valley, in the province of Teramo. The town is a modern seaside, commercial and tourist centre, with a strong commitment to greenery and nature, equipped with accommodation facilities including hotels, campsites and tourist resorts. Palm trees, oleanders and pines line a very long and charming promenade with sandy beaches and shallow waters, ideal for families. Martinsicuro also marks the start of the Abruzzo section of the cycle path that is part of the ambitious Adriatic Cycle Route (Ciclovia Adriatica) project.
