Our route departs from the small local capital of Guillestre.
The local market is held every Monday morning. In summer, from June onwards, the big weekly market welcomes up to 200 fairground vendors!
Make the most of your visit to the village to discover the main sights of this medieval town, perched at an altitude of over 1,000 metres.
Stroll through the many narrow streets and squares lined with shops.
Next, take the D902, a remarkable route that winds its way through the gorges of the Guil. Here you enter the heart of the Queyras.
The mountains are more imposing, the road is winding and passes through stone tunnels - a thrilling experience.
On your way to Saint-Véran, you won't want to miss the remarkable site of Château Queyras!
Standing on a rocky promontory, Fort Queyras has proudly dominated the valley since the 13th century. You can also take a guided tour of the monument.
You'll also find the Guillestrois and Queyras Tourist Office (in the commune of Château Ville Vieille).
Here you'll find a wealth of information on the Queyras Regional Nature Park. This extraordinary natural area covers a total surface area of almost 615 km² and has been protected since 1977.
At the end of the afternoon, after passing through the typical village of Molines en Queyras, you'll reach the highest village in Europe, Saint-Véran, where you'll spend a cosy night!
