Route

[edit]

The complete route of the 2021 Tour du Rwanda was revealed on 29 November 2020. The eight-day stage race covered 913.3 kilometres (567.5 mi) and over 16,347 metres (53,632 ft) of elevation, with 29 categorized climbs and many stages ending with a summit finish. Like in previous editions, the Rwandan capital, Kigali, featured heavily in the race, being a start and/or finish location on all but one of the eight stages. The Mur de Kigali time trial on stage 7, which often draws out large crowds along its infamous cobbled sector, continued to make its appearance in the race.[7]
