This is not just a race; it is a legendary sport tradition that transforms the French countryside into a vibrant, open-air stadium. The route promises a grueling and beautiful 100% Cantal stage, pushing the peloton to its absolute limits across a rugged volcanic landscape.

As the race winds its way toward Aurillac, the local streets will buzz with anticipation and festive celebrations. While roadside viewing remains a classic way to enjoy this free event, planning your travel early is essential to secure the best vantage points along the steep mountain passes.
