De Brabantse Pijl is one of the last major Spring Classics for women of the season, coming after Paris-Roubaix and before the three Ardennes Classics that close out the early-season one-day races: Amstel Gold Race, La Flèche Wallonne, and Liège-Bastogne-Liège.
The women's race debuted in 2016, with Marianne Vos winning the inaugural edition. Until 2018 it was a separate race, and until 2022, it was on a separate course until Flanders Classics brought the women onto the men's course which finishes in Overijse.
2025 Brabantse Pijl Dames route
The 2025 Brabantse Pijl begins at Markt in Lennik and tackles 20 climbs in the 125.7km route which ends with four circuits in Overijse including the Hertstraat, Moskesstraat, Holstheide and S-bocht climbs. The finishing climb, the S-Bocht Overijse (1,300 metres, 4.2% average/5.7% max), was used in the 2021 edition of the UCI Road World Championships.
