Tour de France 2025 Route stage 15: Muret - Carcassonne
Sunday, 20 July – Stage 15 of the Tour de France serves up 2,400 metres of elevation gain over a 169.3 kilometre course. Traveling from Muret to Carcassonne, the route seems tailor-made for sprinters with a strongman skillset.
The ascending is really nothing compared to the Pyrenean giants of the preceding days, but pure sprinters will dread it anyway. The first 75 kilometres feature four modest climbs – Côte d’Auterive (1.7-kilometre at 3.9%), Côte de Naillous (1.2-kilometre at 5.4%), Saint-Félix-de-Lauragais (2.5 kilometres at 3.3%), Côte de Saint-Ferréol (1.7 kilometres at 7.0%) – before the Côte de Sorèze serves up the longest slope of the day: 6.2 kilometres at 5.5%.
Following the descent and a slightly undulating section of around 10 kilometres, the riders tackle the Pas du Sant — a 2.9-kilometre ramp at 10.2% — followed by a false flat that culminates into a 3.8-kilometre climb at 3.8% to the summit of the Col de Fontbruno.
With that, the climbing is done for the day, and the riders plunge down a 34-kilometre descent to the village of Villegailhenc. The final 8 kilometres are flat, leading into the medieval finishing town of Carcassonne.
Three years ago, Jasper Philipsen just edged out Wout van Aert and Mads Pedersen in Carcassonne.
The first three riders across the line gain 10, 6 and 4 bonus seconds.
