The Tour de Condroz was a Belgian cycling race organized for the last time in 1978.[1]

With Brussels as starting place, the major part of the course was situated in the Condroz region of the Ardennes, Liège. Nandrin was the finish place.[2]

The competition's roll of honor includes the successes of Freddy Maertens and Eddy Merckx. The record of victories, however, belongs to Victor Van Schil.[3]
