=== Stage 5 ===
;18 June 2023 — [[Vrhnika]] to [[Novo mesto]], {{convert|142.6|km|abbr=on}}<ref name="S4-info">{{cite web|url=https://tourofslovenia.si/en/stage/4|title=Stage 4 Tour of Slovenia|publisher=[[Tour of Slovenia]]|access-date=14 June 2023}}</ref>

The final stage was won by [[Matej Mohorič]] ({{UCI team code|TBV|2023}}), who attacked on the last category 3 climb ([[Trška Gora, Novo Mesto|Trška Gora]]; 1.5 km at 10.5%, max. 20%), 10 km before the finish. The only one able to follow was [[Filippo Zana]] ({{UCI team code|JAY men|2023}}), though Mohorič was too strong in the uphill sprint finish. Both (Zana in General classification and Mohorič in stage win) dedicated victory to passed [[Gino Mäder]]. This was Mohorič's first stage win at the [[Tour of Slovenia]].
Due to bicycle theft, {{UCI team code|EUK|2023}} did not start the last stage. Fourteen Orbea bicycles went missing overnight in Ljubljana.<ref>{{cite web |title=Stolen bikes stop teams finishing races in Slovenia, Belgium |url=https://www.reuters.com/sports/cycling/stolen-bikes-stop-teams-finishing-races-slovenia-belgium-2023-06-18/ |website=Reuters |access-date=19 June 2023}}</ref>

The total prizemoney was €70,775.

Tadej Pogačar was to compete for UAE Team Emirates but skipped the race due to a wrist injury. [2] Two favourites for victory were Domen Novak and Diego Ulissi (winner of 2011 & 2019 edition), both from UAE Team Emirates, who won the last three Tours of Slovenia (2019, 2020, 2021).

The race was decided on the last two stages, with two ascents of Kolovrat (Stage 4) and the last climb to Trška Gora (Stage 5) before the finish. Filippo Zana (Team Jayco–AlUla) won the race overall, while Matej Mohorič (Team Bahrain Victorious) passed Diego Ulissi (UAE Team Emirates) for second place.[3]

It was won by Colombian Jesús David Peña (Team Jayco–AlUla) despite a mechanical issue - riding on just the small chainring. This was Peña's first Pro career win. [14]

Stage 5

[edit]
18 June 2023 — Vrhnika to Novo mesto, 142.6 km (88.6 mi)[13]

The final stage was won by Matej Mohorič (Team Bahrain Victorious), who attacked on the last category 3 climb (Trška Gora; 1.5 km at 10.5%, max. 20%), 10 km before the finish. The only one able to follow was Filippo Zana (Team Jayco–AlUla), though Mohorič was too strong in the uphill sprint finish. Both (Zana in General classification and Mohorič in stage win) dedicated victory to passed Gino Mäder. This was Mohorič's first stage win at the Tour of Slovenia.

Due to bicycle theft, Euskaltel–Euskadi did not start the last stage. Fourteen Orbea bicycles went missing overnight in Ljubljana.[16]

Matej Mohorič (Team Bahrain Victorious) won Stage 5 in Novo mesto. Filippo Zana (Team Jayco–AlUla) came as second.
