The start of the 109th Tour de France will be given this Friday from Copenhagen (Denmark).

The 176 riders entered will compete this year on a 3,349.8 kilometer long route spread over 21 stages.

They will start with a 13 km individual time trial and finish with the traditional Champs-Élysées stage on July 24.

The route of the Tour de France 2022

Main particularity of the route concocted by the organizers of this 2022 edition: the peloton will not pass through the west of the country.

A heartbreak for the many cycling fans in the regions concerned.

Four countries will be crossed: France of course, but also Denmark, Belgium and Switzerland.

Thierry Gouvenou, technical director of the Tour de France, is the man who designed this course.

To spice up the race, he has planned five summit finishes, these stages which the public loves and which made the legend of the Tour.

Alpe d'Huez is notably back after four years of absence.

This Tour de France could well wait for the penultimate stage, a 40 km time trial, to deliver its verdict.

The runners will then only have to join the Champs-Élysées as tradition dictates.
