The Tour de Romandie is a stage race which is part of the UCI ProTour. It runs in the old Romandie region, in the French-speaking part of Switzerland.
The race traditionally starts with an individual time trial prologue in Geneva and ends with another individual time-trial in the hilly terrains in Lausanne. The parcours usually winds northwards towards the Jura mountains and Alpine mountain ranges of western Switzerland.
The last winner was Santiago Botero in 2005, after beating then-race leader Damiano Cunego in the last day's time trial in Lausanne.
