The end of June is fast approaching, and so is the Tour de France 2025! The 112th edition will start in Lille, as part of the Grand Départ in the Nord de France region. For the first time in recent years, this will be a 100% French Tour de France, as it will not have a single meter outside France. However, it will also be a Tour de France with 48% transfers, as the distances between the stage finishes and the departures of the following stages is almost identical to the total distance of the Tour de France 2025, which is 3,338.8 km (the transfer distances are 3,055 km!)

You've probably already been looking forward to it: the publication with OpenStreetMap maps (equivalent to Google Maps) showing the routes of all the stages of the Tour de France 2025, zoomable as much as you like, as well as hourly itineraries and stage profiles are now available below. And, of course, the file (KML / KMZ) to open in Google Earth to visualize the entire Grand Tour, or to fly over the stages as if you were there! Now you can discover all the details of the stages that await the riders in their quest for the Yellow Jersey of the Tour de France 2025.

velowire.com once again offers you the chance to discover all the little details of the route of the Tour de France, which will be criss-crossing the roads of France for 3 weeks!

All the maps are already available as a preview in the velowire mobile app!

The maps are published here progressively, but they've already all been drawn. As you may already know, you can now find the maps for all the stages in the velowire mobile app.

📲Indeed, velowire is launching its mobile app! It's still undergoing testing, but it's already available for any Android smartphone or tablet, on the Play Store!

In the mobile app, you'll be able to open the maps stage by stage, with a feature exclusively available in the app (and therefore not within this article): the ability to geolocate yourself on the map with the course, so you can determine precisely how to get there to watch the race from the roadside! (in the Maps section)

💡Iphone and/or iPad user? Good news: the velowire app will soon also be available on iOS. For the moment, you can't download it yet, but we can let you know when it's available. To be one of the first to test it on iPhone/iPad, simply fill in this form and we'll let you know (I promise, it'll only take 2 minutes 🙂)!

Detailed maps of all stages of the Tour de France 2025 on OpenStreetMap, hourly itineraries and stage profiles

Enough preliminary information, let's tackle the various stages of the Tour de France 2025 to discover the detailed route, on an OpenStreetMap map (similar to Google Maps), stage profiles and hourly itineraries, so you can find out around what time the caravan and the race will pass your chosen location. You'll also find details such as the precise location of the intermediate sprint, the passes and climbs that feature on the route, as well as the departments crossed and the main towns visited. Whether you're on the roadside or relaxing on your sofa in front of the TV, there's no excuse not to know the route of the Tour de France 2025.

1/ Saturday, July 5, 2025 - Lille > Lille - 184.9 km

The very first stage of the Tour de France 2025 starts from the Citadelle of Lille. First of all, the riders will make a short detour to the official start ceremony of the Tour de France 2025, which will take place in Rue Pierre Mauroy, 2.5 km from the fictitious start. It's also to pass in front of the Conseil Régional des Hauts-de-France before heading towards Wattignies, where the real start of this stage takes place, after no less than 11 km of neutralized route. The first real kilometers of the Tour de France 2025 then take place, heading south towards Lens and the first difficulty of this 112th Tour de France, the Côte de Notre-Dame-de-Lorette (4th category). From there, the riders continue northwards, through the sprint at La Motte-au-Bois (Morbecque), past Hazebrouck, and on to the second difficulty of the day, the famous Mont Cassel (4th category). This is where the return journey to Lille begins, via the Mont Noir (4th category) as the stage's final difficulty, and Armentières, before entering the metropolis of Lille, where they follow a fairly straight course until they almost arrive at the stage's starting point, even if the finish line is just before it, on Boulevard Vauban (you could discover its location in the publication on D-100 of the Tour de France 2025, with the photo of the Mondial Relay vehicle at the traffic lights).

Like the previous one, stage 6 will also take place entirely in Normandy. This time, however, it will be a road stage, starting from Bayeux. From there, the riders head south to the intermediate sprint at Villers-Bocage, and then on to the first two difficulties of the stage. After the last of these, they turn right to head via Flers to Barenton. Here they turn right again, heading for the final part of this 6th stage of the Tour de France 2025.

Stage 7 of the Tour de France 2025 will be in Brittany, starting from Saint-Malo. The stage heads south, passing through Dinan. The riders then head northwest again, reaching the coast at Pléneuf-Val-André. On the way to Saint-Brieuc, they pass through Yffiniac, the birthplace of five-time Tour de France winner Bernard Hinault, 70 years ago, but this is unlikely to be a concern for the puncheurs who have marked this stage for its already legendary finish. After Saint-Brieuc, they contest the intermediate sprint at Plédran before continuing south to Mûr-de-Bretagne. By the time they reach the village, they will have already climbed a first hill, before arriving on a final circuit, which sees them climb the final difficulty of Mûr-de-Bretagne (Guerlédan) twice.

From there, the riders head south to Craon and Lagné, where they turn left to head north towards the finish line. It's more of a transition stage, but there will be a small 4th category difficulty, topping out 16.4km from the finish in Laval at l'Espace Mayenne, which should still be a bunch sprint.

9/ Sunday, July 13, 2025 - Chinon > Châteauroux - 174.1 km

A new stage for sprinters awaits the riders on this second weekend of the Tour de France 2025, starting from Chinon in Indre-et-Loire. Soon after the start, the race joins the Vienne, where the stage's intermediate sprint will be held. At Orches, the descent to the south stops, before turning left and heading east via Châtellerault, before returning to Indre-et-Loire and arriving in Indre to head for the finish in Châteauroux. No difficulties are officially listed on the route of this stage, so the sprint teams should be able to organize themselves to take victory in the place where Mark Cavendish has shone 3 times (in 2008, 2011 and 2021)!

10/ Monday, July 14, 2025 - Ennezat > Le Mont-Dore Puy de Sancy - 165.3 km

The last stage of this long weekend (for it is a long weekend, with the national holiday on Monday July 14!) is more in keeping with what you'd expect to see from a stage on a weekend and during peak TV viewing times (and even at the roadside, for that matter).

At the start in Ennezat, the riders know that there are no less than 8 difficulties awaiting them, all - with one exception - 2nd category, including the final climb! The actual start of the stage will be given in Riom, and the riders will then already find a first difficulty, before heading towards Volvic, then the intermediate sprint to Durtol and Clermont-Ferrand. They then head for the Puy de Dôme, but don't climb it (otherwise the stage would end there), but turn instead around Clermont-Ferrand and through the beautifully undulating and verdant Circuit de Charade. It was on this circuit that the film Grand Prix was shot (in part), and where Laurent Jalabert won the French Championship in 1998. The race will take in the southern part of the circuit before leaving it in the direction of Ceyrat and Saint-Bonnet-près-Orcival. Remaining in volcanic country, the difficulties continue to mount, and it's via Chambon-le-Lac and Murol that the riders approach the finish, climbing one more pass before beginning the final ascent to Le Mont-Dore Puy de Sancy.

R1/ Tuesday July 15, 2025 - rest in Toulouse

After this long initial period of the Tour de France 2025, it's finally on Tuesday, July 15, that the riders will be able to enjoy the very first rest day. Before that, another transfer (there have been quite a few before) will be necessary, to arrive in Toulouse.

11/ Wednesday, July 16, 2025 - Toulouse > Toulouse - 156.8 km

The day after the first rest day, stage 11 takes place in a loop around Toulouse. From the south of the pink city, the race climbs northwards, encountering its first 4th category difficulty at Castelnau-d'Estrétefonds, by which time the riders have almost reached the northernmost point of the stage. Heading south, they then skirt Toulouse to the east, until the sprint at Labastide-Beauvoir. On the way back to Toulouse, they follow roads with several difficulties: 3 in 4th category and the last in 3rd category, with the Côte de Pech David, whose summit lies 8.8 kilometers from the finish. It has gradients of up to 20%, and could see the strongest riders selected to avoid a sprint finish on Boulevard Lascrosses.

12/ Thursday, July 17, 2025 - Auch > Hautacam - 180.6 km

From Auch, the 12th stage of the Tour de France 2025 will be its first Pyrenean stage. After around 100 km, the riders will see the road rise for real (just before that, they will have climbed a 4th-category climb), and will then have two major cols to contend with, with a small col in the middle, and with the final col being the high-altitude finish.

The first of these will be the 1st-category Col du Soulor, whose descent will be interrupted at Arrens by turning onto the ascent of the Col des Bordères, a 2nd-category col. After the descent to Argelès-Gazost, a giant then rises in front of them, with the climb to Hautacam, arriving at altitude on a outside-category pass. If it hasn't been the case before, it's certainly here that the men in the general classification will stand out!

13/ Friday, July 18, 2025 - Loudenvielle > Peyragudes - individual time trial - 10.9 km

Stage 13, on the eve of the 3rd weekend of the Tour de France 2025, will still be a Pyrenean stage, and what a stage it will be! In the Giro d'Italia, the Italians call it a cronoscalata, i.e. an uphill individual time trial, and that's exactly what it's all about, because after about 3 km on the flat from the start in Loudenvielle, and after a gradual uphill part, it's at the first intermediate timing point in Escadaoux that the road rises sharply. In total, the climb is 8 km at 7.9%, all the way to the Peyresourde-Balestas Altiport in Peyragudes, where each rider will finish his solo effort on the runway of the altiport, which was transformed into an Afghan base in 1997 during the filming of the James Bond movie Tomorrow Never Dies (see this report or this one).

Below you'll find the timetable, profile and OpenStreetMap for the thirteenth stage of the Tour de France 2025. Click on images to enlarge.

  • the start ramp will be located in the Allée Laurent Brochard in Loudenvielle, with starts first every minute, then every 1'30", and finally every 2 minutes for the last competitors (first rider starts at around 1:10pm [depending on the number of riders remaining], last rider starts at 5:05pm)

• main towns: Loudenvielle, Loudervielle and Peyragudes / Peyresourde-Balestas

14/ Saturday, July 19, 2025 - Pau > Luchon-Superbagnères - 182.6 km

The 14th stage of the 3rd Saturday of the Tour de France 2025 is a further extension of the Pyrenean sojourn, starting from the unmissable town of Pau. The first 70km, up to the intermediate sprint at Esquièze-Sère, are very slightly uphill, but it's from here on that the stage takes on a real mountainous aspect, with a series of cols up to the finish at altitude.

The riders will have to tackle the Col du Tourmalet (hors catégorie), the Col d'Aspin (2e catégorie), the Col de Peyresourde (1ère catégorie, which they had already partially climbed in the previous day's time trial) and finally the climb to the finish in Luchon-Superbagnères (hors catégorie).

15/ Sunday July 20, 2025 - Muret > Carcassonne - 169.3 km

On the second day of the weekend, we're already out of the Pyrenees, but there's no guarantee that the stage from Muret will finish in a sprint. The Côte de Saint-Ferréol and the Côte de Sorèze, both 3rd category, shouldn't leave too many traces, but the Pas du Sant is a steeper climb, 2nd category, and when the riders reach the banner marking the top of this climb, they won't be finished for all that... For the next ten kilometers or so, the route continues to climb more gently, before heading downhill for forty kilometers or so, until the finish in Carcassonne.
