The 2021 Mont Ventoux Dénivelé Challenge was the third edition of the Mont Ventoux Dénivelé Challenge road cycling one-day race, which was a category 1.1 event on the 2021 UCI Europe Tour. After the 2020 edition was postponed to August due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the race returned to its usual mid-June time slot.[2][3]

The 154-kilometre (96 mi) long race in the southeastern French province of Provence started in Vaison-la-Romaine and featured two ascents of Mont Ventoux, with the race finishing at the summit of the second ascent. The first ascent took the eastern route from Sault, while the second ascent took the southern route from Bédoin.[1][4]

Seven of the nineteen UCI WorldTeams, eight UCI ProTeams, and five UCI Continental teams made up the twenty teams that participated in the race.[5] All but six teams entered a full squad of seven riders: Arkéa–Samsic, Astana–Premier Tech, and Bike Aid each entered six riders, while Bahrain Cycling Academy, Cofidis, and Trek–Segafredo each entered five riders.[6] With one late non-starter from Total Direct Énergie, there were 130 riders who started the race, from which 86 finished.[7]
