On August 7, 2026, the riders of the Women’s Tour de France will climb Mont Ventoux!
Stage 7 will run from La Voulte-sur-Rhône to Mont Ventoux:
“For the second edition, the ”cyclos” will be the scouts, starting just 24 hours ahead of the champions, and will set off from Vaison-la-Romaine to bring the athletes and their entourage together in the immediate vicinity of Mont Ventoux. Their route will join that of the elite riders about 70 kilometers from the finish line, to warm up their legs around the Dentelles de Montmirail. The big challenge then comes with the climb up Mont Ventoux via Bédoin, its most demanding access point.”
