The 2027 Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift route will see the peloton start in the hills of Yorkshire, before racing to victory on the final stage on the famous flanks of Puy de Dôme a week later, a dormant volcano located just outside of Clermont-Ferrand.

Three of the race's nine stages will be contested in Britain, with the action starting on Friday 30 July in Leeds. London will host the first ever team time trial, and after a day of travel, action will resume in France.

Stage four will take riders to Calais and stage five sees the peloton heading to Magnanville. A day for the sprinters beckons on stage six, as the race rolls into Bourges, but then the final three stages will be contested on the historic slopes of the Massif Central.

The yellow jersey will be won on Sunday 7 August, as the Tour comes to a climax on the iconic climb of Puy de Dôme.
