The stage profile
The 128 kilometers of the stage between Saint-Dié-des-Vosges and Rosheim will be punctuated by a succession of climbs and hills first in the Vosges, with the Col d’Urbeis then in Alsace where you will have to climb the Klingenthal coast and the Grendelbruch coast. The Côte de Boersch will conclude the stage with its climb of 6.1%. The finish will be in Rosheim.
For Marion Rousse, “this crossing of the Alsatian vineyard will not be easy and a long-distance breakaway could reward the adventurers at the expense of the sprinters”.
