The little history of the Viso route or Route du Belvédère du Viso
The Route du Viso was created to serve the valley of Haut Guil and create a point of tourist attraction there by creating a parking lot with an exceptional viewpoint on the north face of Mont Viso called "Grand Belvédère du Viso". The Route was started in 1864 by the inhabitants of Ristolas, then improved and extended with the help of the Ministry of Agriculture, the Army (Bataillons de Chasseurs Alpins), the Touring Club de France, the Tourist office Queyras and CAF, and of course Michelin, with an inauguration in 1931. A Michelin terminal materializes his departure before Roche Ecroulée.

This is where the pleasant part of the ascent ends and a stretch of pushing and carrying begins.

End of gravel road, start of single trail, but definitely rideable with electric bike to the Rifugio du Viso.
