Nestled at the head of the Odet estuary and proud of its old town, ramparts, timber-framed houses, and cathedral, Quimper has been a regular host of the Tour de France since 1958. In 2018, Slovakia’s Peter Sagan triumphed here at the top of Stang Bihan, a tough one-kilometre climb, where the women will battle on July 27th.
