Tour Down Under 2025 Route stage 3: Norwood - Uraidla
It's the third time ever that the Tour Down Under finishes in Uraidla. Peter Sagan took the spoils on the first two occasions, in 2018 and 2019.
The riders climb from the start and cross the first KOM, Knotts Hill, after 10 kilometres. The average gradient of this opening section sits at 4%. The route then continues on a lumpy lap of almost 100 kilometres.
The riders tackle Knotts Hill for the second time at the end of the big loop. As they come from another side, it's a more punchy test tis time: 2.6-kilometre at 8%.
The route veers left and the riders move through the finish line for the first time after a 3 kilometres descent. They then descend for another 6 kilometres before returning onto the loop they've seen before. This means Knotts Hill makes a final appearance in the finale. The 2.6-kilometre at 8% peaks out at 13.4% before the riders fly down the 3 kilometres run-in to the finish line on Green Hill Road in Uraidla.
The first three riders on the line gain time bonuses of 10, 6 and 4 seconds, while two intermediate sprints come with 3, 2 and 1 seconds.
