Next year's 14th l'Etape du Tour Velo Magazine will be held on Monday, July 10, on the Tour's first rest day. With some 8,500 riders expected, the parcours will be that of the 15th stage, between Gap and L'Alpe d'Huez. It's 187 km long, and features the climbs of the Col d'Izoard (2,360 m), Col du Lautaret (2,058m), and l'Alpe d'Huez (1,860 m).

As in previous years, the "Village Accueil" will be open on Saturday and Sunday, July 8-9, in Gap in order to welcome the riders. Each starter will be able to collect their number and all the necessary information for the stage.
