High-alpine horizons, legendary passes, playful singletracks, larch forests glowing in the light, and rugged wilderness that feels a world away…The Tour du Queyras is an itinerary for riders who want a true point-to-point mountain adventure — without giving up comfort at the end of the day.Each stage is tailored: big views, flowing descents, technical sections where needed, and balcony traverses that define Southern Alps riding. Local certified guides, daily luggage transfers, and chosen mountain inns let you focus on the trail and adventure, not logistics.
