Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Briançon do Valloire

Get ready for a bucket-list ride in the French Alps! This route rolls out from Briançon, a gorgeous fortified town that’s the highest city in France. You’ll be climbing almost right from the start, winding up stunning mountain roads and tackling the legendary Col du Galibier—one of the Tour de France’s most iconic and challenging ascents (at 2,642 meters, it’s a real lung-buster!).

Expect both smooth tarmac and a few gravelly sections, so a road bike with wider tires or a gravel bike would be ideal. Most roads are peaceful, perfect for soaking up alpine scenery, though you’ll hit some busier stretches near popular passes.

After savoring breathtaking views, descend into Valloire, an alpine village known for its charming atmosphere and annual sculptures made entirely of snow and ice. In total, you’ll conquer over 1,700 meters of climbing, so bring snacks and a camera—the scenery is unforgettable!
