Tour De France 2023: Stage 17 Route
Stage 17 is a 165.7 kilometer, or 102.9 miles, route featuring four climbs and one sprint. The star of the show will be the summit finale, Cote de la Loze.
This is the second appearance of the Cote le la Loze since it was the stage 17 finale of the 2020 Tour de France. This year it also serves as a bonus round, so the first three cyclists to reach the summit will earn extra points for the general classification.
Due to its sheer size and elevation, the Cote de la Loze is one of the most difficult climbs featured through this entire Tour de France 2023 route. It’s 28.4 kilometers, or 17.64 miles long with a 6% incline and reaches a peak elevation of 2,304 meters, or 7,559 ft.
