The route for the sixth edition of Paris-Roubaix Femmes was unveiled on February 12, with the race getting a new look for its opening kilometres as well as three extra cobbled sectors including the four-star Haveluy to Wallers sector.
The 2026 race will start in Denain and run for 143.1km to the famous Vélodrome André-Pétrieux in Roubaix, but the race will wave goodbye to the opening laps around Denain for 2026.
Instead, the race heads south before looping north again on the road to Roubaix. Early cobbled sectors at Haussy and Saulzoir are new additions to the race, while sector 18 at Haveluy à Wallers is a major new challenge.

The sector at Haveluy à Wallers, with a right-angle corner in the middle, marks the lead-in to the Arenberg in the men’s race, measuring in at 2.5km and a four-star rating.
From there, the remaining 17 sectors are the same as they were last spring, with four four-star sectors (Hornaing à Wandignies, Tilloy à Sars-et-Rosières, Auchy-lez-Orchies à Bersée, and the Camphin-en-Pévèle) coming alongside two further five-star sectors at Mons-en-Pévèle and Carrefour de l’Arbre.
