Most of the route follows quiet roads with a mix of smooth asphalt and some stretches of gravel, giving you a real feel for the Serre Chevalier Valley’s rugged landscape. You’ll enjoy sweeping views, maybe pass a few friendly locals, and mostly avoid traffic.

End your ride in Villeneuve, a gateway to skiing in winter and trail adventures in summer. Grab a coffee or hop into a bakery—those alpine pastries taste even better after a ride!
