Women Elite race info

Course

Six cobblestone sections and seven climbs on the edge of the Flemish Ardennes: this is Dwars door Vlaanderen's recipe for women on Wednesday 2 April. With Berg Ten Houte, Côte de Trieu and the Hotond, the traditional climbs of this classic are again on the menu this year, in the middle of the sacred Flemish cycling week. Add to this the cobblestones of the Mariaborrestraat and Huisepontweg, among others, before the finale begins in and around Waregem. At the end of the race, two passages of Nokereberg and the cobblestones of Herlegemstraat will play an important role. The race concludes once again on the Verbindingsweg in Waregem, where we will finally be introduced to the successor to Marianne Vos. Discover the timetable and roadmap below.

Start: Hippodroom in Waregem – 14:40
Finish: Verbindingsweg in Waregem – around 17:58
Distance: 128,5 km
