The route bends a little west this year through the Loire Region to Limoges before turning back to the east in a gradual descent down the country of France and into the "Cote d'Azur" at Nice. That's a trip through some typically cold country late winter to the warm and sunny Med coast. 7 stages and a prologue that see over 200km in just about every stage. There is some climbing too! The race starts March 7 just outside Paris and finishes in Nice on March 14.

Not coincidentally, but specifically in conjunction with Paris-Nice, we are offering some early season guided cycling tours on the French Riviera to ride the sunny region and see the end of Paris-Nice. Check out the program on this page of our Cycling Classics Site: http://www.cyclingclassics.com/riviera.php This trip is a guided program and priced at an amazing price of 1595 euros! It is low season, airfares are cheap, and the Mediterranean coast is usually a nice warm place to be in March!
