Stage 20 returns to Alpe d'Huez once again after the riders already tackled it on Friday. The 171-kilometre stage is extremely demanding. The climbing starts right from the departure. The riders immediately face the Col de la Croix de Fer, the first hors catégorie climb of the penultimate day. Next comes the Category 1 Col du Télégraphe, followed by another hors catégorie ascent, the Col du Galibier. The Col de Sarenne, also classified as hors catégorie, is then still on the menu. After that, only 15 kilometres remain until the finish in Alpe d'Huez. This time, however, the riders will not have to climb all 21 famous hairpin bends to reach the summit, as only three bends remain before the finish line. By the end of the stage, the overall winner will most likely be decided, provided nothing unexpected happens before the final arrival in Paris on Sunday.
