Description

Departing from Cervières, this route takes you to a magnificent natural setting: the Haute Vallée de la Clarée.
Detailed itinerary : From the parking lot, turn right onto the RD 902 to reach Briançon. Once in Briançon, at the Font Christianne hamlet, continue straight ahead on the RD 902 until you reach the Izoard traffic circle. At the traffic circle, take the 4th exit. Then take the 1st road on the right, following the sign "Toutes directions - Gap". At the traffic circle in front of E.Leclerc, take the 1st exit on the right and cross the bridge. At the next traffic circle, take the 1st exit on the right, then go straight on to take the Chaussée (steeply-sloping road). Follow the Chaussée all the way up to the cease-and-desist sign. At the intersection, turn right towards "Turin - Montgenèvre - Névache". At the Champ de Mars traffic circle, continue towards Turin to leave Briançon on the RN 94. After about 7 km, at La Vachette, turn left towards "Vallée de la Clarée, Névache, Val-des-Prés", on the RD 944G. In the village of La Vachette, at the church, turn left towards Névache. Continue straight on for 15 km (note the crossing of Val-des-Prés in July/August, which is regulated by an alternative traffic light). When you reach Névache - Roubion, stay on the main road towards Ville Haute and the upper Clarée valley. When you reach Névache - Ville Haute, turn right at the traffic circle onto the RD 301T towards the Haute Vallée. Once through the village, continue straight on until you reach Laval (approx. 10 km) - (Beware of traffic and shuttle buses from the Haute Vallée in July and August). Return by the same route. At the traffic circle at the bottom of the Chaussée à Briançon, take the leftmost exit onto rue Centrale (one-way street). At the end of Rue Centrale, head for Col de l'Izoard at the traffic circle to return to Cervières.
