The Tour de France 2023 race route has been presented: the Tour of all mountain areas!
Without much surprises if you have followed the search for the Tour de France 2023 race route on this website in the past few weeks, the 110th edition of the Grande Boucle will take place on a rather limited part of France after the Grand Départ in Bilbao and in the rest of the Spanish Bask country, but it does visit all French mountain areas.

Indeed, after the Grand Départ and a visit of the Pyrenees, the race will go up north up till Bordeaux before taking off, via Limoges, towards the Massif Central followed by the Jura to get to the Alps where the race will camp for several days before getting back on its steps, visit another part of the Jura and end off in the Vosges before the transfer towards Paris. Only one time trial, not without any difficulties, of 22 kilometers will be on the programme of this Tour!

The Grand Départ of the Tour de France 2023 in the Basque country: detailed maps on Open Street Maps
While the Tour de France 2022 is doing its transfer from Denmark to France this Monday 4 July 2022, let's look one year ahead, towards the Grand Départ of the Tour de France 2023.
