From 2025 the Tour de Suisse Women will be held before the men’s race. This shift makes the women’s race even more appealing for Teams, as it allows a longer gap leading up to National Championships.
Next year the Tour de Suisse Women begins on Thursday 12th June and ends after four stages on Sunday 15th June. The last stage therefore overlaps with the first stage of the men’s race, which takes place in 2025 from June 15th-22nd. “We are very pleased that we have been given this new calendar slot for the Tour de Suisse Women following consultation with the UCI,” says Tour Director Olivier Senn. Küssnacht was announced as the Start Hub for the men’s race a few months ago. The central Swiss town will now also host the last two stages of the women’s race.
Other successful Host Cities for Tour de Suisse 2025 will be announced at the completion of this year’s Tour.
