The first views of the sea! Over the Col de Braus to the Col du Farguet and then over the Col de la Madone.

Today, before the rain is forecast, there is only one change of accommodation: from Moulinet to Sospel

With our destination almost in sight, we have our first problem. We are a few days early :-) Our accommodation in Nice has been reserved for a long time. So from now on we are completely in leisure mode and looking for somewhere else to hang out. Today we are heading over the Passo Tanarello to La Brigue

Vernante is a good starting point for us to get to the Ligurian border ridge road. We cross countless hills and finally reach the Rifugio Don Barbera, just below the Col des Seigneurs. Our last night in Italy.

Today we are going to the Colle dell'Arpione and the Colla Prarosso - our first crossings in the Maritime Alps. As so often in the last few weeks, we are very alone here, which we really enjoy.

We already knew the Strade della Gardetta from a previous holiday in this area. The crossing is so beautiful that we drove it a second time. With a short detour to the Colle del Preit we went down to Festiona.

Start in Sampeyre, over the Colle of the same name into the Valle Maira. First-class accommodation, plenty of time and just as many opportunities to cycle without a backpack for once. That's why we're staying here for another night.

Across the Queyras Nature Park, we head over the Col Agnel back to Italy. The ascent to the third highest asphalted Alpine pass is of course no problem with the MTB :-)

Absolutely isolated and mostly comfortable (short carrying section just before the col) we go up to the Col des Thures, which is our highest pass of the entire tour. Beautiful panorama of the Queyras Nature Park and the Monviso. Challenging down to Abriès where we stay two nights and have exclusive use of the local bike park.

We pedal back up to the Assietta ridge road to ride over the Monte Genevris and various cols in a southerly direction down to Sestriere and further to Thures.

It goes up to the Assietta ridge road for almost 1900m. With these views, every step is a pleasure. A very lonely driveway, almost completely closed to 4x4s and motorcycles, saves us the usual stress with these contemporaries. We don't want to leave the Assietta straight away and therefore take a detour

Shortly after Hannibal we also cross the Col du Mont Cenis to return to Italy in the direction of the Cottian Alps.

Relaxed tarmac drive from Val-d'Isère to the Col de l'Iseran. Beautiful descent into the Val-d'Arc with a view of the mountain backdrop of the Vanoise massif.

After almost two months on the bike, we arrived in Nice today. No breakdowns, no falls... and happy and sad at the same time.
At the moment, it's hard to imagine how we're going to survive the next few weeks without exploring new areas every day and collecting new impressions ;-)
But for now, we're just
