Étoile de Bessèges 2026

04.02-08.02

The 2026 Étoile de Bessèges takes place from 4 to 8 February and features five stages totalling 640.3 km, starting in Bellegarde and finishing in Alès. Held in the Gard region in the south of France, it remains one of the first multi-day races of the European season, combining fast days for the sprinters with tougher terrain that can quickly reshape the general classification. The start list includes Paul Lapeira, Dylan Teuns, Dylan Groenewegen and Lukas Kubis.
