The first 9 kilometres are flat. The riders then cross the Sitter River and while climbing out of the valley the route goes up for 600 metres at 6.3%.
The course continues as before until the the second climb appears in Waldkirch. It’s a 1.7 kilometres drag at 7.9%. The highest point of the day is situated 3 kilometres further up the road at an elevation of 821 metres. There are 3.5 kilometres remaining at this point and that’s mostly a downhill.
Last year’s Tour de Suisse also concluded with an ITT. Remco Evenepoel won the race 3 seconds ahead of Geraint Thomas, who took the overall victory.
