Fantastically beautiful landscape, little traffic on the D78 / D2 between the Var valley (Saint-Martin d'Entraunes) and the Verdon valley (Colmars).

It is a wonderful area for cycling.
The roads are mostly with little cars.

Nice and quiet Col. No board unfortunately. Highest point is a stone column. In summer Fridays nearby Col d'Allos is closed for cars between 8 and 11 in the morning. Both cols can easily be combined with Col de la Cayolle. I recommend to start in Barcelonette early and cycle the cols in this order: Col d'Allos, Col de Champs and Col de la Cayolle. This route is approx. 125km with about 3300m climbing.
