The race kicks into gear when the peloton crosses the Murray. The route follows the river to Wellington and then turns west. Just after Strathalbyn the only climb of the day appears. Gemmell Hill is 4.1 kilometres long and averaging almost 4%.
The route gradually descends towards Goolwa near the Murray Mouth. A bunch sprint is likely to happen 10 kilometres later on the slightly uphill home straight in Port Elliot. The Tour Down Under never finished before in the seaside town.
