On Sunday, May 25th, the Market Square in Oudenaarde will once again set the stage for the fourth edition of the Tour of Flanders Youth Day. In and around Oudenaarde, four youth categories will compete for victory in their own version of Flanders’ Finest. Below, you can find more information about the course and the programme on the Market Square.

The course consists of several laps, varying by category. The Men & Women U17 and Men & Women U19 will tackle some iconic climbs and cobbled sectors through the Flemish Ardennes. With the Achterberg and Varent climbs, and the cobbles of Holleweg and Karel Martelstraat, some serious leg-burners await them on the road to Hoogstraat. The Wolvenberg will serve as the decisive challenge in the finale. Discover the course for the 4 youth categories via the button below.
