Tour de France 2025 route rumours and announcements

What would be the best hilly finishes inside a town?

I would say a minimum of 100 000 inhabitants required.
A threshold too high for Chambéry, Troyes, Quimper, Bourges, Colmar, Ajaccio, Calais, Cannes, Pau, La Rochelle, Béziers, Cherbourg-en-Cotentin, Dunkirk, Poitiers, Avignon and Roubaix. Just to point out that it excludes a lot of towns.

I guess Besançon doesn't count as a hilly finish inside the town? Does Limoges? Grenoble? Toulon? Nice?

I think Rouen in the Tour this year is the best one in France.
