The Etape du tour 2026 will be an epic bike ride testing even the toughest of cyclists.
On the 19th July 2026 around 16,000 amateur cyclists will attempt to ride 170km with 5,400m of elevation gain, which is stage number 20 of the 2026 Tour de France.
The start point is in Le Bourg d’Oisans and the route continues to Col de la Croix de Fer (2067m ASL), Col du Télégraphe (1566m ASL) then over the mighty Col du Galibier at 2,642m ASL. There is a long descent to recover from all the ascending until you arrive at the Chambon dam then the climbing starts again up Col de Sarenne (1,999m ASL) to finish at the iconic Alpe d’Huez.
