The Queyras

The Queyras is a valley in the Hautes-Alpes department, but also a regional natural park, where skiingski is practiced in winter and hiking in summer. It is notably crossed by the GR 58 which allows one to circle it or the GR 5.

The valley is traversed by the Guil and includes eight municipalities now grouped within a community of municipalities: Arvieux, Abriès, Aiguilles, Ceillac, Château-Ville-Vieille, Molines-en-Queyras, Ristolas and Saint-Véran. Ceillac was not part of the historical Queyras: it belonged to the bishopric of Embrun (and not Briançon) and did not enter the escarton of Queyras.
