Departure from Saint-Véran (Hautes-Alpes)
A foray into the Haute Ubaye to round off the route in style at its highest point. With the option of watching the sunset from the summit of the Bric de Rubren.
The route deliberately moves away from the border to take the easiest route up the hill.

Departure from Saint-Paul-sur-Ubaye (Alpes-de-Haute-Provence)
A very long day criss-crossing the border. But what breathtaking scenery! And you won’t be bothered by the neighbours... there’s little chance of coming across other two-legged creatures. But perhaps some ibex, vultures, including (apparently) a pair of bearded vultures.

Departure from Saint-Véran (Hautes-Alpes)
A fantastic Franco-Italian ride between Saint-Véran and Larche! It will take you through strange places, from the solitary, green rocky landscapes of Saint-Véran to the fantastical, almost Dolomite-like terrain of the massif between Chambeyron and Orrenaye.

Departure from Molines-en-Queyras (Hautes-Alpes)
The third stage of this journey presents no major difficulties, with exceptional views around the lakes. Only the descent from the Col Vieux to the Refuge de la Monta quickly takes its toll on your legs.
The abundance of flora makes this stage even more beautiful.

Return to Queyras by crossing the Col Girardin via a path that starts off quite steep but then levels out before ending with large hairpin bends that finish at the pass. This is followed by a long descent past the lakes, which reflect the famous Font Sancte, the highest point in Queyras.
