Stage 14 of the Tour de France 2026 is a 155.3 km mountain stage from Mulhouse to Le Markstein Fellering in the Vosges mountains, scheduled for Saturday 18 July 2026 at 13:10 CEST. Seven climbs, 3,800 metres of elevation gain, and a Col du Haag that no GC team has power-file data for make this the most tactically uncertain stage of Week 2.
On paper, it doesn’t look like a race-defining day. The Vosges are not the Alps. No summit tops 1,424 metres. The stage is just 155 kilometres. That’s exactly why it’s dangerous. Seven climbs inside 155 kilometres means the peloton never stops climbing long enough to recover, the Col du Haag is the first time any professional race has ever gone up that road, and Stage 14 lands between Stage 13, the longest day of the entire 2026 Tour at 205 kilometres, and Stage 15, which finishes on the steepest summit average of the whole race. Saturday, July 18, is when GC scenarios start breaking open.
