The 2025 route unveiled !

February 5 ^th 2025 - 10:30

The 5th edition of Paris-Roubaix Femmes avec Zwift will take place the day before, on Saturday 12th April, on a route strictly identical to the one in 2024, with a total distance over the cobbles of 29.2 km, spread over the 17 sectors corresponding with the finale of the men’s race.

For cobble lovers, there will be five courses on the menu during the weekend, starting on Saturday, when thousands of amateur cyclists swing into action, as they get to grips with one of the three distances to choose from on the Paris-Roubaix Challenge. As a curtain raiser for the men’s race, the under-18s will set off for the velodrome from Lécelles, with 111 km to cover and 17 cobbled sections to tackle, while the under-23s will do battle over 163 kilometres (and 26 sections) between Le Cateau-Cambrésis and Roubaix.

The route on the Paris-Roubaix Femmes avec Zwift has not been modified for the 5th edition, the start of which will again take place in Denain, for 148.5 kilometres of roads and cobbles until the finish in the velodrome. The first four editions witnessed very different scenarios, with a long-haul solo triumph by Lizzie Deignan (in 2021), an attack from halfway by Elisa Longo-Borghini (in 2022), a small breakaway from which Alison Jackson took victory (in 2023) and a modest group sprint won by World Champion Lotte Kopecky (in 2024). The race is therefore wide open for a battle in which the women riders will tackle the last 17 sections of the men’s race, totalling 29.2 km of cobbles, including the sections of Mons-en-Pévèle and Carrefour de l’Arbre.

Saturday April 12nd 2025 – Amateur cyclists will face the legendary “Hell of the North” and its mythical cobbles a few hours before the professional pelotons and compete in one of the three proposed distances: 70 km (8 cobbled sections), 145 km (19 cobbled sections) and 170 km (30 cobbled sections).
