Les Dix Alpes
 


Col de Vars

 

The Col de Vars is the "lowest" of the Alps you will pass. It's still 2.108 metres and connects the Ubaye Valley with the Queyras Valley.

You cycle from the small town of Guillestre over a beautiful winding road and climb 1.141 metres over a distance of almost 20 kilometres. The pass is one of the only roads in this section of the Alps and has been included in the Tour de France 33 times.
