Course

On Sunday, 29 March, the peloton will start from Wevelgem for the first time. Through the Wevelgem districts of Gullegem and Moorsele, they head toward the official start. From there, the riders will pass through Zonnebeke, Langemark-Poelkapelle, and Ypres, towns and municipalities where the In Flanders Fields spirit is strongly felt. Before tackling the traditional climbs in Heuvelland, the women will, for the first time, face the three Plugstreets. This is followed by Monteberg, Kemmelberg Belvedère, Scherpenberg, Baneberg, and Kemmelberg Ossuaire. The race finale remains unchanged, and the final 80 kilometers, starting from the Plugstreets, are identical to the men’s course. Lorena Wiebes could become the sole record holder with three victories if she wins again on Vanackerestraat.
