The competitors returned to the Bresse circuit that they discovered and unanimously appreciated for the first time in 2009. Two road special stages were also on the programme. The Tour then gained altitude, first of all in the Jura then in the Alps while heading towards another new stop-over at Megeve.

No circuit on the menu for this day, but three special road stages, two in the morning and one in the afternoon. As an interlude for this long day which will cross five departments (Savoie, Isere, Drome et Vaucluse and Bouches du Rhone) the competitors lunched in the fabulous settings of the Couvent des Carmes (14th Century), overlooking the Isere Valley. The finish was in Aix-en-Provence.

5th stage: Saturday 24 April / Aix-en-Provence – Beaulieu-sur-Mer
After a last special road stage, the final classifications were made, as in 2008, on the ultramodern Paul Ricard HTTT circuit. This time the public was able to watch the very last sparring. Azure from beginning to end, the last liaison route took Dolce Vita airs, via the Esterel massif and the vertiginous panoramas of the mythical Corniche, between Nice and Monaco, where the competitors were awaited at Beaulieu-sur-Mer for the prize-giving dinner.
