The 2013–14 Tour de Ski was the eighth edition of the Tour de Ski. The Stage World Cup event began in Oberhof, Germany on December 28, 2013, and ended in Val di Fiemme, Italy on January 5, 2014. The cups were defended by Justyna Kowalczyk (Poland) and Alexander Legkov (Russia).

Controversy The "last minute changes" introduced by the organizers of 2013–14 edition of Tour de Ski resulted in controversies regarding the balance between the free and classical techniques in the competition. Some people, including the four times winner of Tour de Ski and Olympic Champion Justyna Kowalczyk, resigned from participation in protest against changes excessively favoring freestyle competitors.
