Trip Overview
Queyras to Monviso Adventure
Download Trip PDF.
Join me for a spectacular loop from Nice through the quiet beauty of France’s Queyras region and into Italy beneath the towering presence of Monviso. Over eight memorable hiking days, we’ll wander through larch forests to the cobbled streets of Saint-Véran, cross high mountain passes, and discover glacier-fed lakes tucked between France and Italy.
Our days are evenly paced, typically 4–15 km, with time for long lunches, photographs, and soaking in the scenery. On longer days, there are shorter route choices, taxi options, or the opportunity to skip a section — allowing you to match the adventure to your energy level. With welcoming alpine hotels, cozy rifugios, delicious regional cuisine, and seamless luggage transfers, this is a joyful blend of hiking, culture, comfort, and camaraderie.
