Queyras tour by electric mountain bike (Hautes-Alpes)

Description

The tour of the Queyras massif by electric mountain bike is one of the musts of our region.

Most often done by hiking, it is now accessible through electric mountain bike, if having a minimum of technical background to fully enjoy the adventure.

I thought about the best route, in terms of quality of trails and landscapes in order to have no portage, or areas too brittle on the bike. The result is a complete Queyras tour, including a large number of variations depending on the level of the group, with always one goal: to show you the best areas of our playground!

During your week, you will take some of the most beautiful singles of the massif, cross spectacular mountain landscapes, discover the old villages of Queyras and the atmosphere of larch forests... in one word the unmissable of Queyras!

 

If you wish to continue your discovery of the massif by bike, I also organize other stays: the balconies of Queyras by electric mountain bike and some enduro MTB in the Upper Queyras.

Program

D1: Ceillac - Saint-Véran.
We take the shuttle to Ceillac and the mountains. The first easy climb is an opportunity to get to know each other and your bike. We pass two passes offering superb panoramic views over the whole of the Queyras before descending to the magnificent village of Saint-Véran.

D2: Saint-Véran - Abriès.
Today we're on the verge of 3,000 meters: after climbing the Cirque de la Blanche, we take the famous "Descente des Lacs" (lahes downhill), which offers 12 kilometers of wild descent in a high-mountain environment.

D3: Abriès - Chateau Queyras.
We take advantage of the ski lifts to gain altitude. We climb a single, then descend on a fast-moving trail through larch trees. We return uphill before discovering a few secret spots around Chateau Queyras.

D4: Towards Arvieux.
An early-morning climb takes us to a magnificent balcony trail offering fine panoramic views of the southern Alps. The descent onto a rolling single is pure pleasure, before a final climb and descent back to Arvieux.

D5: Arvieux - Mont-Dauphin.
This is the last day of your raid, and you finish on a high note! An uphill section takes us through beautiful alpine meadows before lunch in a refuge. The descent that follows is wild and mythical, taking us back to our base camp. Arrival in Mont-Dauphin late afternoon.
