The 85th edition of the Škoda Tour de Luxembourg (September 17–21, 2025) promises to be truly spectacular:
Two years after a memorable first, the race returns with a unique finish inside the courtyard of the medieval castle of Vianden – an exceptional setting guaranteed to deliver unforgettable images.

Another major novelty is the Spuerkeess Bonus Sprint: an intermediate sprint placed about 60 km before the finish of each stage (except ITT). Riders will battle for precious time bonuses (3-2-1) towards the general classification, along with a cash prize – adding an extra tactical dimension to the race.

In total, the route covers 694.4 kilometers across five stages, including a decisive 26.3 km individual time trial on day four.
