Stage 5 of the Tour de France 2027 is a 178km hilly stage from Pontorson to Plumelec.
The stage starts within sight of Mont-Saint-Michel. The riders take straight roads towards Saint-Méen-le-Grand around the halfway point.
At Plumelec, there's a circuit, which means two climbs of the Côte de Cadoudal to the finish line. It's a three-minute effort that could suit van Aert or van der Poel.

Route notes.
Stage 8 of the 2025 Tour de France started in Saint-Méen-le-Grand, and Stage 5 of the 2027 edition passes through it.
The village was chosen for a stage start because of its connection to a great Tour de France cyclist, Louison Bobet. Bobet was the son of the village baker, and he won the Tour in 1953, 1954 and 1955. He was also World Champion in 1954.
In this short video, local people were asked about their plans for the day when the 2025 Tour de France was in town.
