The 105th edition of the race runs along a substantially flat route from Rocca Canavese to Borgosesia. The route crosses the undulations of the Canavese area and climbs the Serra after Ivrea. It then heads down to Biella and, after having touched the Prealps, it reaches the Valsesia valleys where the race finale takes place with a circuit of about 35km. The riders will enter the circuit via Gattinara then pass near Borgosesia after first crossing over to the other side of the river. They will then tackle gentle undulations near Azoglio before returning to Gattinara and, from there, back to the race’s finish line in Borgosesia.
