L’Étape Canada

Get ready to experience the atmosphere and passion of the Tour de France, in a new, amateur, mass participation cycling event. Join L’Étape Canada by Tour de France in Strathcona County, Alberta in Canada on August 12 and 13, 2023.

The event offers a distance for all cycling abilities – riders can choose between several competitive distances: 140 km, 80 km or 40 km. There will also be a 15 km Family Ride and a Kids Race.

Riders will compete for authentic Tour de France jerseys including the Yellow Jersey, for the overall male and female winners, the Green Jersey, for the sprint-section winners, and the Polka-Dot Jersey, for the King/Queen of the Mountain (KOM/QOM) section winners.

Tour de France experts and Yellow Jersey holder and Edmontonian Alex Stieda will design the courses expected in early 2023. All routes will depart from the urban area of Sherwood Park and head into Strathcona County’s rolling hills and spectacular views for riders opting for the 140 km distance.
