생베랑‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪5‬개의 협곡

An almost fairytale passage, the Guil has carved the rock over millions of years.

Cycling through these gorges is a wonderful experience.

The Ruine Blanche ravine is a formation of gypsum that was deposited in the lagoons of the Alpine Ocean. The alpine ocean was a warm, shallow sea where corals lived (fossils from the Rochebrune massif in Arvieux). In the shallows swam ammonites (fossils from the pink marble quarry of Guillestre). In the lagoons were deposited gypsum (formation of the Ruine Blanche above the hamlet of Montbardon in Château-Ville-Vieille) and cargneules (Casse-déserte in Arvieux). Fossilized sea sands, wrinkled by the waves, still bear witness to a beach. The clay and limestone sediments deposited on the ocean floor were then transformed into shales by tectonic phenomena.

Vallone del Rui is an idyllic place: small stone huts, imposing peaks and expanses of mountain flowers. Wonderful!

Vallone di Soustra is large and green. From here the high mountains on the sides don't seem so impossible to reach.

beautiful gorge towards Ubaye valley

wonderful landscape at the foot of the Col dízoard.

Superb road along the Guil, difference in altitude 2 to 3% on average.
