Preview stage 4. From the 15th to the 18th of June one of the final preparation races for the Tour de France takes place. It is within the French's south and Pyrenees that La Route d'Occitanie will be race.

The final day in the race once again features quite some climbing and is open, to a sprint, breakaway or even a late attack to succeed. The route from Saint-Gaudens to Saint-Girons is 165 kilometers long, the riders climb up the Col de la Core (14.2Km at 5.9%) and the Col de Latrape (5.9Km at 7.1%). The climbs shouldn't decide the overall classification but do allow for attacks, but the final 37 kilometers are downhill and flat where the race can change quite a lot.

Stage 4: Saint-Gaudens - Saint-Girons, 165 kilometers
