The route of the Tour de France Femmes 2026
From the Ventoux to the Riviera, women climbers go on the attack!
Between mythical slopes and postcard landscapes, the finale of the Tour de France Femmes 2026 promises to be spectacular. Two stages to tick off: the dreaded ascent of Mont Ventoux and a firework display of bumps on the heights of Nice. In this setting designed for female climbers, we're obviously waiting for Pauline Ferrand-Prévot!"
Ventoux in giant mode, Éze in looping mode
August 7, stage 7 will set off from La Voulte-sur-Rhône for a finish at the summit of Mont Ventoux, after 144 km and 3,565 m of positive elevation gain. The ogre of Provence will also host the finish of the Zwift Tour Stage, where enthusiasts (and amateurs) will be able to measure themselves against this legendary climb. On August 8, a short detour via Sisteron, at the start of stage 8, to salute the P'tites Routes du Soleil. Then it's time for the grand finale: on August 9, a 100% Nice loop for the final stage, with 99 km and 2,175 m D+. On the menu: four passages of the Col d'Éze, 7.7 km at 5.9%, which is likely to do some damage to the legs and some beautiful images over the Mediterranean. A punchy finale just the way we like it!
