2026 Tour Route

Welcome to the 2026 Tour Route. Over five distinct stages, riders will take on 500 kilometres of Victoria's premier cycling terrain. From the punishing gradients of Mount Egerton and Mount Buninyong to scenic, rolling loops through Daylesford and the historic Avenue of Honour, this year’s route delivers the perfect mix of epic climbs and classic Goldfields backcountry.
