The Tour de France Women in Corrèze
Published on May 22, 2023 by Marie-Laure
The 2023 women's cycling Tour de France will cross Corrèze and will honor two of the most beautiful villages in France on July 25: Collonges-La-Rouge (start of the 3rd stage) and Saint-Robert.
Inaugurated in 2022, this new edition of the Tour de France women will leave from Clermont-Ferrand and reach Pau after a week and a passage in the Pyrenees (July 23 - 30, 2023).
Corrèze in the spotlight
After a brief foray into Corrèze on July 24 and more precisely to Bort-Les-Orgues during the second stage, the runners will arrive in Nouvelle-Aquitaine on Tuesday July 25. Indeed, the 3rd stage will lead the peloton from Collonges la Rouge à Montignac-Lascaux.
This 147 km event will highlight two villages classified among the most beautiful in France: Collonges-La-Rouge et Saint-Robert. The stage will also pass through Perpezac-le-Noir and Arnac-Pompadour.
Collonges-La-Rouge
From 10 a.m. on 25/07 and all day long, activities will be offered for the whole family: local producers' market, music groups, bicycle-related activities, restaurant areas, live broadcast on the giant screen of the stage of the day.
Saint-Robert
The medieval village of St-Robert, located on the heights of Yssandonnais, will also be crossed by cyclists. Don't miss the magnificent panoramas visible from the gardens behind the church and the historical circuit which allows you to discover many noble houses.
