With this incredible 7-day Queyras Valley hiking tour, you'll get to see all of the region's highlights — and even some of its little secrets — in the company of a local guide!
This regional park, huddled along the Italian border, is home to both beautiful, unspoiled nature and amazing, centuries-old built heritage. During the tour, you'll have the chance to enjoy both!
Along the way, we'll be walking close to Mount Viso (3841 meters), the highest summit in the southern Alps. Known as the "stone giant", this imposing peak will be always in sight, guiding our path.
We'll also enjoy the area's protected flora and fauna and discover its centuries-old architectural heritage. The Queyras Valley has everything for an incredible week of hiking.
Additionally, our stay at Chianale, one of the most charming villages in the Piedmont region, will be your own little Italian escapade!
A good fitness level is necessary for this Queyras Valley hiking tour. However, I will keep a rather slow pace for you to be able to discover the region without getting exhausted! Do take into account, nevertheless, that the trip involves from 5 to 7 hours of walking per day. Some days also involve important altitude changes.
You can choose between staying at a B&B or, if you prefer to have some added comfort, staying in a hotel. Please refer to the extra information section for more details.
