Stage 1’s unmissables: Vannes > Plumelec

There’s going to be some real sport! And joy and partying in the port of Vannes on Saturday 26 July! Grand Departure in Brittany: a first for this race, which has chosen to honour a region deeply rooted in cycling. Off to the green lung of Morbihan for a short, dynamic and really intense stage.

The unmissables around the stage

A getaway from the Gulf of Morbihan to the hilly terrain inland! On the menu, Malestroit, a medieval jewel on the banks of the Oust, and then Josselin and its imposing château. Further on, Lanvaux’s moorlands extend as far as the perched chapel of Saint-Michel de Guéhenno – one of Brittany’s most beautiful calvaries, by the way. A nature and heritage match at its best!
