The route of the Route d’Occitanie should lead the runners to the cheese town at the foot of Combalou.
Thursday, June 16 will be given the start of the Route d’Occitanie in Séméac in the Hautes-Pyrénées. The second stage of this race will leave from Graulhet in the Tarn for an arrival in Roquefort. The exact route is not yet known but there is no doubt that you will be able to observe the cyclists passing on our roads until the arrival in Roquefort on June 17th.
Among the riders present, we can find the double winners Nairo Quintana (in 2012 and 2016) and Alejandro Valverde (2018 and 2019).
On August 1, 2020, during the 44th edition, the Route d’Occitanie started in Saint-Affrique.
