Giro d'Italia Women 2025 - Stage 8

06.07-13.07

Stage 8 brings the 2025 Giro d’Italia Women to a close with a punchy circuit race from Forlì to Imola. The route features four laps of the tough 2020 World Championship circuit, including the climbs of Mazzolano (2.1 km at 7.3%) and Cima Gallisterna (2.6 km at 6.8%), the latter tackled four times. With steep gradients and repeated efforts, the climbs are more than enough to split the race. The final ascent of Cima Gallisterna comes just 11 km from the finish, offering a launchpad for solo glory or late attacks.
