Tour de Romandie 2025: The Route

The Tour de Romandie kicks off with a rolling prologue of just 3.4 kilometres, followed by the 1st stage, which packs in 3,200 metres of climbing. The finale is tailor-made for explosive riders, with a 1-kilometre ramp at 6.7% starting 2 kilometres from the line. Things flatten out again after the flamme rouge.

Stage 2 sees the peloton tackle around 2,700 vertical metres in the opening 110 kilometres. After the descent, the course flattens out for just over 30 kilometres, save for a 1.2-kilometre climb at 4% inside the final 10 kilometres.

Stage 3 dishes up 2,500 metres of climbing, mostly via a barrage of short ascents. The Col de Mollendruz – 14.1 kilometres at 3.5% – adds quite some altitude, too. From its summit, 40 kilometres remain, largely downhill, though the final 2 kilometres are an uphill run-in to the line.

The Queen Stage comes on the penultimate day, with a brutal 4,200 metres of climbing. The final ascent – 20.2 kilometres at an average of 7.7% – leads to the ski resort of Thyon 2000.

The GC will be decided in a 17-kilometre individual time trial featuring 175 metres of elevation gain. Right out of the gate, riders face 300 metres at 7.8%, followed by a 1.5-kilometre climb at 5% midway through. A final 600-metre ramp at 4.1% spices up the closing stretch.
