After a two-year absence, the individual time trial returns to the Tour de France Femmes, with a 21km route from Gevrey-Chambertin to Dijon.
The route through the Burgundy vineyards starts off flat for about eight kilometres before the 1.8km at 6.9% climb with three hairpins to the Lacets de Marsannay. The only intermediate time check comes at the 9.7km mark, giving riders a read on how they're faring against the clock. The road keeps climbing, though at a gentler pitch, for close to a kilometre to reach Corcelles-les-Monts, before nine rolling and mostly downhill kilometres that carry the riders to the finish line on Avenue du Général-de-Gaulle.
