The highly anticipated routes for the 2027 Tour de France and Tour de France Femmes have been unveiled, revealing a diverse and challenging parcours for both men and women.
The men's race will commence in Edinburgh, Scotland, marking the most northerly Grand Départ in the event's history. This decision follows a trend of international starts, with the 2027 edition being the fifth in six years to begin outside of France. The route will traverse through the United Kingdom, with detailed street-by-street information for the six stages now available. The competitive climax of the men's race is set to unfold in the Pyrenees, promising a dramatic conclusion.
Meanwhile, the Tour de France Femmes will conclude atop the iconic Puy de Dôme volcano, adding a unique and demanding ascent to its final stage. This announcement follows the 2026 race's southerly start in Barcelona, highlighting the organizers' commitment to varied and engaging race designs.
