O Gran Camiño 2025: The Route

For the first time in the four-year history of O Gran Camiño, the race is leaving Galicia. The opening stage takes the riders through northern Portugal, covering 189.7 kilometres and 2,000 metres of elevation gain. Most of the climbing happens in the Alto de Feitos and Monte de São Félix, which are both far from the finish line.

Stage 2 is a 133.1-kilometre race with more than 2,600 metres of elevation. The Alto de San Antoniño is the first of three climbs, while the Alto de San Vicenzo appears twice. The second and final time over the San Vicenzo climb comes with 10 kilometres to go, before a finish on a 1.9-kilometre climb at 5.6%.

The individual time trial on day three starts at the Roman Bridge in Ourense and finishes 15.5 kilometres later in Pereiro de Aguiar. Halfway through, the riders tackle the Alto de Sabadelle, a steady 4.9-kilometre climb with an average gradient of 5.7%.

The Queen’s Stage features 3,133 metres of climbing over a 136.4-kilometre route. The riders crest the extremely irregular Alto de Pintinidoira with 15 kilometres remaining. There’s no descent after that; instead, the route continues rolling before a brief drop leads into the finish climb — 2.8 kilometres at 6.5%.

The final stage starts in the coastal town of Betanzos and finishes in Santiago de Compostela. The route is 160 kilometres long with more than 2,800 metres of climbing. The riders face the Alto de Lampai and the partly unpaed, rolling climb to O Milladoiro twice. The second time through O Milladoiro comes with just 4.5 kilometres to go.
