Giro 2026 Route stage 4: Catanzaro - Cosenza

Giro d'Italia 2026Tuesday, 12 May – The Giro d’Italia is on home soil. At 144 kilometres, stage 4 runs on flat roads from Catanzaro to Cosenza until a climb of 14.4 kilometres at 5.9% sets up the finale.

In 2016 the Giro last visited Catanzaro, again straight after a transfer – that time from the Netherlands. The route then headed to Praia a Mare, where Diego Ulissi took the spoils.

The 4th stage follows virtually the same roads as it did ten editions ago. Most of the route hugs the Tyrrhenian Sea, although this time the riders turn right inland quite a bit earlier. Almost immediately they are faced with the day’s only climb: 14.4 kilometres at 5.9%.

Once over the top at 921 metres above sea level, 43 kilometres remain. Roughly half of that distance goes downhill, while the other half tilts ever so slightly upwards towards the finish in Cosenza.
