Bonette. Cayolle. Vars. Allos. La Força. Restefond. Larche... wait, scratch Larche (roadworks until 2030 — check your route). Six is still legendary.

Two giants. One week. One basecamp.

Day 1: Col de la Bonette. 2802m. The highest. You'll feel it. Day 3: Col de la Cayolle. 2326m. The wild one. Less traffic, more soul.

That's Tuesday and Thursday taken care of. Add Vars or La Força for the weekend — your legs decide.

From Barcelonnette, every route starts at the door of the gîte. Bike storage, full kitchen, laundry. No hotel, no faff.

September still has availability. Your squad ride of 6–8 riders fits perfectly in «En toute amitié».

Don't wait for October regrets.

Col de la Cayolle — 2326m. The wild one.

From Barcelonnette via Uvernet-Fours: approx. 24 km / 1500m elevation gain. Less traffic than the Bonette. More remote. The valley below Uvernet-Fours is one of the most scenic in the Alps.

Gradient: steady at 5-7%, some steeper ramps after Pont du Gué. No tunnels. Gravel-free tarmac.

June 2026 conditions: Col open. Road in good condition.

Pair it with the Bonette: two days, two giants. That's an Ubaye week.

Le meilleur trail de l'Ubaye, c'est celui qu'on fait en partant directement du gîte. 🏃‍♂️

Sortie courte ce matin : sentier autour du domaine, bois de mélèzes, vue sur la vallée. Les chaussures boueuses, les poumons contents.

C'est ça, Barcelonnette : une vallée où le trail commence à la porte. Pour les grands comme pour les petits.

Rangement matériel, buanderie, garage vélo. Le lendemain matin on repart propre.

Barcelonnette, votre base camp famille. Trails dès le pas de la porte, Mercantour à 20 minutes, AllTrails débloqué.

The Col de la Bonette doesn't care about your FTP. It just demands respect.

26 km from Jausiers. 1600m elevation. That summit plateau at the top — zero traffic, 360° alpine panorama, and the feeling that you earned every meter.

From Barcelonnette, you have this on your doorstep. Add the Cayolle. Add Vars. That's a 7-col week right there.

Argile basecamp: clean bike storage, hot showers, proper kitchen for evening carb loading.

September slots are limited. Your group ride deserves a base.
