The GR58 Tour du Queyras invites you to explore one of the wildest mountain ranges in the Hautes-Alpes in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. This circular trek of 114.7 km, completed in 6 to 9 days, offers total immersion in varied landscapes: rocky summits, dense forests, mountain lakes and impressive cliffs. With a positive elevation gain of 7,993 meters and a maximum altitude of 2,879 meters, this traverse provides an authentic alpine experience in the heart of Queyras.

S24 shuttle in approximately 30 minutes. Its circular configuration makes logistical planning easier. This Tour du Queyras combines demanding hiking with discovery of pre-alpine geology and biodiversity.
