The queen stage of this 2025 edition does not leave Savoy. As soon as the Chambéry is released, a first big difficulty: the Plainpalais pass, then the race will then join the Maurienne to face the hardest slope of the Madeleine. Its 18.6 km of an irregular slope (8.1 % average) and its rough coating will make it possible to dig differences. The arrival will be tried in Saint-François-Longchamp (Savoie), after 122 km of racing.
