L’Etape Slovakia 2026

Experience the unique atmosphere of the legendary Tour de France in Slovakia and discover the beautiful routes in the capital and the surrounding forests of the Little Carpathians. You can choose between the shorter, less demanding route “The RIDE” (60km, + 900m) or the longer route “The RACE” (112km, + 1700m). Both routes lead around important historical monuments in Bratislava and the surrounding towns. You can look forward to climbing in the forests of the mountains Malé Karpaty, as well as the beautiful natural scenery of western Slovakia. The unique atmosphere of the event is completed by picturesque villages in Záhorie and wine towns bordering Malé Karpaty mountains. The icing on the cake is the final climb to the finish line on the iconic Kamzík, which rises above the capital of Slovakia.
