History will be made as some of the world’s best female cyclists race the first-ever women’s stage of the Tour of Norway. With 1,800 meters of climbing over 96 km, the course is undeniably challenging.
The stage starts in Jørpeland and follows Fv523 toward Oanes before turning north on Fv495 toward Kvalvåg – a hilly circuit that will be ridden twice. The race then returns to Jørpeland before climbing Heia for the first time, looping around Bjørheimsvatnet, and tackling Heia again for the finish. Just like the men’s stage, the final 2.2 km at 7.7% will separate the contenders from the rest. Everything is set for a thrilling battle up Heia!
A big thank you to Rogaland Sparebank for making this stage possible!
