Among the main attractions of this 2025 Tour are the Mont Ventoux, back for the first time since the double ascent of the 2021 edition, explosive finales at Mûr-de-Bretagne and in the mountains towards Superbagnères, Hautacam and the Col de La Loze. The first time trial, entirely flat for 33 kilometers, takes place in Caen on the fifth day, while the second climbs the slopes of Peyragudes for 11 kilometers on the thirteenth day.
The 3,320-kilometer route is entirely inland in France, a first in five years. As a conclusion on Sunday July 27 on the Avenue des Champs-Élysées, the Tour will once again reach Paris after an exceptional stopover in Nice this year, where the green jersey Biniam Girmay had his historic coronation becoming the first African cyclist to win a special jersey on the greatest cycling race.
Biniam Girmay :
“There seems to be a good balance between stages for pure sprinters and others with a greater difference in altitude that suit me better. I noticed that the last week will be very demanding again, as in 2024. Attending the official presentation for the first time was a very special moment that makes me look forward to it. Until then, there is a long way to go with other great races and the classics campaign.”
