2023 Etape du Tour

9th July 2023

Duration: One day Distance: 152KM

Sports Travel International is the “Gold tour operator of L’Étape du Tour 2023”. The 31st edition of the Etape du Tour will take place on Sunday 9th July 2023 from Annemasse to Morzine. The Tour de France stage that is chosen will be replicated during the Etape du Tour for amateur riders. Don’t miss out on taking part in this amazing event!

DETAILS
L’Etape du Tour 2023 is the most anticipated edition in years. The course will follow the hardest mountain stage of next year’s Tour de France on closed roads – the closest an amateur can get to the full Grand Tour experience. That means you get closed roads, on-road mechanical support and feed zones like any rider would on the Tour de France itself!

The 2023 Etape du Tour Stage will start in Annemasse and finish in Morzine. The stage is 152km with climbs up to 4100 m+. In 2022, the stage was 167km with 4700 m+ so this is definitely your chance to ride on the same roads as the pros before they do!
What’s Included:
- 3 night accommodation in either a 3 star or 2 star hotel in the start area on bed and breakfast (extra nights available on request)
- Daily breakfast including early breakfast on race day
- Transfer from the finish area back to your hotel in the start area
