Tour de France 2025 - Route with all stage-profiles

The 2025 Tour de France starts on Saturday 5th of July in Lille and finishes on Sunday 27th of July in Paris. The route offers a balanced mix of opportunities for sprinters, punchers, climbers and time trialists. In the first week, there is a serious chance that a sprinter will take the yellow jersey, thanks to a relatively flat opening stage with a finish in Lille. Then follow a number of classics such as the Mûr de Bretagne in stage 7, where punchy riders smell their chance.

Stage 5 is an individual time trial in Caen and together with the climbing time trial to Peyragudes makes up the total of 44 kilometres of time trial in this edition. In the second week, the peloton heads through the Pyrenees with hard-fought finishes at Hautacam, Superbagnères and the final climb in Peyragudes, which runs via an extremely steep landing strip.

After a short excursion to Carcassonne, where sprinters can strike, the third week will see the Mont Ventoux on the programme. The Alps will then be the setting for the decisive mountain stages, with heroic climbs such as the Col du Glandon, Madeleine, Col de la Loze and La Plagne. The Tour can be decided on this last climb, with its 17.1 kilometres at 7.6% gradient.

The final stage in Paris will have a special twist this year: instead of a traditional flat finish, the riders will first have to conquer the Côte de la Butte Montmartre, a 1.1 kilometre cobbled climb at 5.9%, with the summit just over six kilometres from the finish. This will also give the final day an extra tactical element.
