Tour De Pologne Women

The Tour de Pologne Women is a women's road cycling stage race held in Poland each July. It is a short elite event, not a week-long grand tour. The current format is a three-day race with UCI ProSeries status, attracting international teams and top female riders to Polish roads. The Lublin Voivodeship will host the route and stage starts, placing the race in eastern Poland instead of the mountain roads used by the first edition. The first Tour de Pologne Women was a compact but challenging race: three stages covering 182 km, featuring two mountain stages and a 4 km individual time trial. The race began and ended near Zakopane and Bukowina Tatrzańska, with Bukovina Resort serving as a finish and stage hub. That initial route was initially planned for the coast before being moved to the mountains. This change occurred after the calendar was adjusted to avoid the Giro Rosa and to separate the women's start from the men's Tour de Pologne finish. Jolanda Neff secured the overall victory, the sprint classification, and the most active rider classification, while Tetiana Riabczenko won the mountains classification and the Swiss national team claimed the team ranking.
