Stage 5 of the 2025 Giro d'Italia sees the peloton edge slightly further north after a day for the sprinters in Lecce. With it comes more climbing, though with just one classified hill and 1,487 metres of ascent, the day is far from the toughest of the race.
Still, the stage is more of a challenge for the sprinters than stage 4's flat run-in posed. Much of the mid-stage is flat, while much of the day's hills – whether classified or not – come in the final 30km of the 151km.
