Riders will set off from Durrës in Albania for the first stage of three on the east side of the Adriatic.

Once riders have negotiated the capital Tirana and Vlorë, they will jet off to Lecce in southern Italy, where they will begin to tread more familiar paths.

Reigning champion Tadej Pogačar will not return to defend his crown in a bid to maximise preparations for the Tour de France. Fellow Slovenian star Primož Roglič will aim to pick up the mantle.

RadioTimes.com brings you all the dates and times you need to know in the Giro d'Italia 2025 schedule.
