The Tour de France Comes to Wales
The Tour de France is coming to Wales for the first time. Discover the roads, landscapes and excitement waiting in the mountains.
On 4 July 2027, history will be made as the Tour de France arrives in Wales for the very first time.
For cycling fans, local communities and visitors from around the world, this will be far more than a race. It will be a celebration of Welsh landscapes, challenging roads, passionate supporters and the places that make this part of the world unforgettable.
A Historic First for Wales
The Tour de France is one of the most recognised sporting events in the world, watched by millions as riders travel through some of the most spectacular scenery on the planet.
In 2027, Wales will take its place on that global stage.
From rolling countryside and mountain climbs to historic towns and welcoming villages, the Welsh stage will showcase exactly why riders and visitors have fallen in love with cycling here.
The Welsh Roads Await
The route will take riders through some of Wales’ most beautiful landscapes, bringing the excitement, colour and atmosphere of the Tour to roads usually known for peaceful escapes and breathtaking views.
Expect Welsh flags, decorated villages, roadside celebrations and thousands of spectators lining the route as the peloton passes through.
It will be a once-in-a-generation opportunity to experience the magic of the Tour de France surrounded by the beauty of Wales.
Explore the Black Mountain
Long before the world’s cameras arrive, cyclists have been discovering the quiet roads, open landscapes and unforgettable climbs around the Black Mountain.
This is a place made for exploring — whether that means challenging yourself on two wheels, walking through the countryside, discovering local history or simply slowing down and enjoying the views.
After a day outdoors, there is nothing better than returning to a peaceful countryside escape, lighting the fire, soaking beneath the stars and planning tomorrow’s adventure.
Stay a Little Longer
As excitement builds for the Tour de France coming to Wales, accommodation across the country is expected to become increasingly popular.
Black Mountain Escapes offers a peaceful base surrounded by countryside, with two unique retreats designed for slow mornings, outdoor adventures and relaxing evenings.
Bring your walking boots, your bike, or your four-legged companion — the mountains are waiting.
The Countdown Begins
One year to go.
In July 2027, the world will be watching Wales.
