Stage 7 of the 2026 Tour de France: Hagetmau to Bordeaux, a Landes stroll towards the Garonne

Discover Stage 7 of the 2026 Tour, a journey through the Landes and Gironde regions, taking in pine forests, vineyards and historic heritage before the finish in Bordeaux.

This flat stage of around 180 km (profile still to be confirmed) connects Hagetmau, the heart of the Landes, to Bordeaux, the jewel of Aquitaine. The mostly flat route, with a few gentle rises, winds through varied landscapes: pine forests, maize fields and the Graves vineyards. Riders will need to contend with the wind, a frequent feature of the region, before a likely sprint finish on the banks of the Garonne.

Lac de Hagetmau

This 30-hectare lake, right in the town centre, is the perfect spot for a nature break before the stage begins. Its landscaped banks offer lovely views of the surrounding Landes scenery.
