Overview

The TransVerdon is an exceptional mountain-biking route along the iconic Verdon Valley, crossing a wide variety of landscapes. The route starts in the heart of the Parc Naturel Régional du Mercantour, where the Verdon springs up, shaded by larches. It ends under holm oaks in the lower gorges, having taken you via mountains, gorges, lakes and plateaux. The stages, between 30km and 50km in length, are especially demanding, shifts in altitude sometimes exceeding 1600 m. This is a mountain-bike trail geared to the most seasoned of cyclists.
