Tour de l’Ain 2025: route, stages, schedules, start list

The 37th edition of the Tour de l’Ain will take place from August 6 to 8, 2025. This mountainous stage race always crowns an excellent climber. On this year’s course, from Feillens to Belley with the Grand Colombier as the ultimate test, tradition should be upheld.

Among the riders to watch closely, Paul Seixas (Decathlon AG2R La Mondiale) could continue to confirm the high hopes placed in him. Jordan Jegat (Total Energies), a recent 10th place finisher in the Tour de France, could be at the forefront if he has recovered well. Cian Uijtdebroeks (Visma Lease a Bike) also seems to be back in form after his Top 10 at the Clasica San Sebastian.
