☀ On July 20. and 21. 2024, dream finale on the French Riviera ☀ Les 20 et 21 juillet 2024, un week-end d'apothéose sur la Riviera ! #TDF2024
Paris-Nice has just concluded but taking the momentum from the spectacle in Nice, the Tour de France organizers have revealed how stages 20 and 21 of the 2024 Tour de France will look like, and there is a serious amount of climbing.
The start will be in Florence on this year, and it's finale will be in Nice, as Paris hosts the Olympic Games almost simultaneously in 2024. This has allowed the race organizers to play a bit differently when it comes to the route design, and the final two days of racing are a prime example.
Stage 20 will be the final day in the mountains for the Grand Boucle, short in distance however it'll be in the Alpes Maritimes that it'll take place, a rough day with four categorized climbs including the Col de Turini, Col de la Colmiane and the Col de la Couillole - all frequent appearances as the queen stages at Paris-Nice.
Stage 21 will then be the final day of the race, and for the first time in decades the race concludes with an individual time-trial. The riders will depart from Monaco and end in the Promenade des Anglais where Paris-Nice also frequently finishes.
The 35-kilometer route will include the ascents to La Turbie and a short hilltop to the Col d'Èze before descending down to the coastal city which will receive the Tour de France peloton's podium.
