After Jason Tesson (TotalEnergies) won the Classic Var today in Brignoles, tomorrow it will be the turn of the Tour des Alpes-Maritimes 2026.

Usually contested over two days—but with stages that largely overlapped, the Tour des Alpes-Maritimes will be a one-day race in 2026, just like the Classic Var, which was thus able to take place on Saturday instead of Friday (usually it was the Tour des Alpes-Maritimes which took place on Saturday and Sunday). On a route similar to that of last year's second stage, the 2026 Tour des Alpes-Maritimes covers a distance of 154 kilometers and includes four climbs.

Below you will find the detailed route of the 2026 Tour des Alpes-Maritimes on an OpenStreetMap map and in Google Earth, as well as the race profile and the list of participants.

If you are going to the event, you will probably prefer the map of the Tour des Alpes-Maritimes 2026 route in the velowire app!

As is now usually the case, the route of the 2026 Tour des Alpes-Maritimes was already available in the velowire app (available on mobile or tablet, iOS or Android) before its publication here.

But if you follow velowire, you already know that. If you are going to the event, either for one of the participating teams, for the organization or one of its partners, or simply as a cycling enthusiast at the side of the road, velowire invites you to discover the map of this race in the Maps section of the velowire app for added convenience. This way, you will always have it with you and, as a little bonus, you can view it in full screen and, if you're traveling to get there, display your position on the map and move the map with you, making it easier than ever to get there!

So don't wait any longer and join the hundreds of users of the app by downloading the velowire app from the stores:

The detailed route of the 2026 Tour des Alpes-Maritimes on an OpenStreetMap map and the race profile

After the fictitious start at the seaside in Villefranche-sur-Mer and a 6.7 km parade route, the race begins immediately with the climb to the Col d'Èze (507 m). After a short descent, it continues to the Col du Saint-Bernard, above Saint-Martin-de-Peille.

The riders will then descend into the valley between Cantaron and Contes, before starting a new climb, the Col de Châteauneuf (629 m). After passing through Tourrette-Levens, Aspremont, and Colomars, they will cross the Var and climb above Carros towards the Col de Carros (340 m). The route then remains hilly, passing through Saint-Jeannet, Vence, Tourrettes-sur-Loup, and Le Bar-sur-Loup before beginning the climb to (the Col de) Gourdon (760 m), the highest point of the race.

This is followed by a long descent to Oppio, and the route then becomes slightly hilly again as it passes through Valbonne and Sophia-Antipolis, while descending in altitude. From the center of Biot, the race ends with a short climb to the finish line on the Route des Colles in front of the Bioparc.
