Following the removal of the Grande Boucle Féminine Internationale from the UCI calendar, the first edition of the Tour Cycliste Féminin International de l'Ardèche was staged in 2003.[2]
Following the collapse of the Tour de l'Aude Cycliste Féminin and the Route de France Féminine races in 2010 and 2016 respectively, the Tour de l'Ardèche became the only international level multi day stage race for women in France.[3] The race was joined by Tour de France Femmes in 2022.[3]
