Route
Short and flat stage. The first part runs along the Tyrrhenian coast to Salerno, where the route climbs to Cava de’ Tirreni (the only KOM of the day) before entering the plain around Mount Vesuvius. After Nola, the final 70 km are entirely urban, with a near-continuous succession of built-up areas (and therefore the typical features of obstacles and street furniture). Before entering Naples, around 20 km are covered on a dual carriageway. The finale takes place within the city of Naples on wide, paved roads.
Final kilometres
The final 3 km are virtually straight along the port. At 650 m from the finish, a left-hand bend leads onto the slight uphill (4%) of Via Acton on stone slabs. At 400 m, two right-hand bends lead onto the final straight on 8 m wide cobbles.

Paestum



Overview

Located in the Sele Plain in Campania, Paestum is a hamlet of the municipality of Capaccio Paestum and is renowned for its extraordinary Greek archaeological site. Founded in the 6th century BC under the name Poseidonia, it later became a Lucanian and then a Roman city, passing through different historical phases that enriched its heritage. The area preserves three large Doric temples, among the best preserved in the Mediterranean, along with remains of city walls, dwellings and public spaces. The historical and monumental value of the site has led Paestum to be recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Napoli



Overview

Overlooking the bay that bears its name, with Mount Vesuvius dominating the skyline, Naples is one of the oldest and most historically layered cities in Europe. Founded by the Greeks as Neapolis, it has experienced more than two thousand years of history while maintaining a unique urban continuity. Its historic centre, one of the largest in Europe, is recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and preserves an artistic and architectural heritage of exceptional richness. A cultural capital of southern Italy, Naples has long been a crossroads of peoples, languages and traditions, deeply connected to the sea and its surrounding territory.
