You can use a timer with a diode to prevent it from triggering itself, like shown here: Wiring
With that, I believe it's just a matter of chaining some timers. But that'd be a lot of timers.
To use fewer timers, you could use a counting circuit like this one:
It's basically just a bunch of transistors chained together. Once I flip the switch 5 times, the lamp toggles.
If you replace the switch with something like a 5 seconds timer, this would give a pulse every 25 seconds (I believe). You can increase the number of transistors to increase the delay.

Here's another thread that could be useful:

Guide - Timer Cascades with Logic Gate Control
This guide is an extension to the awesome work done by DicemanX in this thread. I wanted to replicate the timer cascasdes as shown in his video, but did not want to use dummy ghosts or hoik tracks. As I am not an engineer by education, this took multiple failed attempts as I learned through...
