9 or 10 days cycling. approx 1800km
Cycle all the way from Barcelona to the first rest day over a long week and experience the magic of the Tour
With a Grand Depart in Barcelona and an early visit to the Pyrenees as we cross into France, this is set to be a fantastic start to the 2026 Tour de France.
From here, we have the excitement of finding out (in October 2025) where we’ll go next. Whether it’s the sunshine of Provence, maybe more unusually early Pyrenean stages, a trip north up towards Bordeaux or inland to the Dordogne, this Loop will be as treat-filled and non-stop as 9 or 10 days of cycling can be.
The First Half Loop will take you from the Grand Depart to the first rest day. Don’t just watch it… Ride it!
Full dates and our own descriptions of each stage will be listed here in October when the route is announced.
