The 2026 Tour de France is the upcoming 113th edition of the Tour de France.
The race will take place from 4 to 26 July 2026, starting in Barcelona.
The race will feature 5 summit finishes, including Plateau de Solaison for the first time and two finishes at Alpe d'Huez.
The race will feature just 26 km (16 mi) of individual time trial, with a team time trial starting the Tour for the first time since 1971.
Some stages in the race will feature multiple intermediate sprints, for the first time since the 2010 edition of the race.
Reacting to the route, Cyclist noted that the route was "ripe for breakaways" and Rouleur considered that the route would suit four-time winner Tadej Pogačar stating "the Slovenian superstar can do everything".
