The 10th edition of the Race saw riders setting off from the iconic Roubaix Velodrome, and heading to the TCR-loved city of Geraardsbergen where the Start Parcours ended. From here riders began their journeys towards and through the Slovenian Alps and into Bosnia, followed by the first ever CP established in Kosovo. The Race then entered Türkiye, crossing over the Dardanelles Strait into the Marmara region and visiting Çanakkale, before finishing on the Asian side of the city of Istanbul.
